Spotidry

A personal command-line project used to surface Spotify information and fit naturally into desktop setups such as Polybar.

  • Spotify API

  • Polybar

Overview

Spotidry is a personal CLI project for working with Spotify from a terminal-oriented environment instead of depending entirely on a heavyweight desktop UI.

Why I built it

I spend a lot of time in Linux, in terminals, and with keyboard-driven workflows. Building a small command-line tool for Spotify was a natural way to make the desktop fit how I already like to work.

Highlights

  • designed to integrate cleanly into status bars such as Polybar
  • built around fast interaction instead of mouse-heavy workflows
  • doubles as a fun project for exploring lightweight developer tooling patterns
