About:
spotify-tui is a full-featured, terminal user interface (TUI) client for Spotify, built with Rust. It provides keyboard-driven navigation to browse, search, and control music playback directly from the command line, integrating seamlessly with the official Spotify Web API. Its primary value is enabling efficient, distraction-free music management for developers and power users who live in their terminals.
Key Features:
  • Full keyboard-driven control and navigation
  • Supports play, pause, skip, volume, and playlist management
  • Real-time search and browse through Spotify's library
  • Customizable theme and status bar
  • Lightweight and fast, built in Rust
Use Cases:
  • Managing Spotify playback without leaving a terminal workflow
  • Using Spotify on a remote server or headless system via SSH
  • Reducing distraction by using a minimal, text-only music interface
Alternatives:
  • ncspot – Also a terminal Spotify client, but uses librespot for direct Spotify Connect protocol, acting as a standalone client rather than a Web API wrapper.
  • cmus – A general terminal music player that can play local files and streams, but lacks direct integration with Spotify's streaming service.
