Web-based music player for communities (hacker spaces, maker spaces).
Music is crucial when working on projects. However, when you're with a group, who is in charge? Everyone should be, of course! This music player allows everyone to create their own playlists. Then, when you're together, enable the playlists of everyone who is present. Music will be chosen from each playlist with a fair distribution.

- Minimal: fast and secure
- Written in pure HTML, CSS and JavaScript with minimal third party libraries. The frontend should be fast, even on an old laptop or cheap single board computer.
- Queued songs are stored as blobs in the browser's storage. Temporary network connection issues are no problem.
- Python dependencies are kept to a minimum, and we ship a custom build of FFmpeg for minimal storage usage.
