About:
spotify-player is a fast, terminal-based Spotify client that runs directly in your command line. It provides a rich, keyboard-driven interface for browsing and controlling your music library, playlists, and playback. The tool integrates with the official Spotify Web API to deliver a seamless, distraction-free listening experience for developers and power users.
Key Features:
  • Terminal-based user interface (TUI) with vim-like keybindings
  • Full control over playback, playlists, library, and search
  • Supports Spotify Connect for controlling playback on other devices
  • Highly configurable theming and layout
Use Cases:
  • Managing Spotify playback while working in a terminal-centric workflow
  • Controlling music on a headless server or remote machine
  • Discovering and playing music without leaving the command line
Alternatives:
  • ncspot – ncspot is a similar terminal client built in Rust, often praised for its lower resource usage.
  • spotify-tui – An older, popular TUI client that is no longer actively maintained; spotify-player is a modern alternative.
