Embedding just the web player in native apps would be a pain due to communication between the native and web layer. If you just did the whole thing in JS (electron, etc) you’re barely any better off than the official client in terms of resource consumption, defeating much of the point of building an alternative client. There are reverse engineered libraries available (mainly librespot[1]) but they come with the caveat of violating the EULA and risking the accounts used with it. AFAIK Spotify hasn’t banned anybody for using it yet, but it’s always a possibility. [1] https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot
