I am finishing on my free time a complete desktop music player using React+Tauri, and this looks amazing! It's just the piece I'm missing most/have lest develop

  Have you published the code yet? I'm working on a desktop music player too, but using Electron right now because I'm using the browser to play the audio and Chromium supports more formats. https://github.com/milesegan/minimoon https://github.com/milesegan/minimoon

    No, but I want a more "minimal" one from what I'm seeing. I actually started with Electron and raw HTML+CSS+JS, but at some point I discovered Tauri+React and switched over and now I'm very happy programming there. It does have some major/minor limitations compared to Electron*, but also 10MB (which can apparently be reduced even further) vs 200MB and a pretty nice dev experience makes it worth it for me. I might semi-open-source it at some point (code-readable and compile your own, or pay $4-10 for the binary) but here is the direction I'm taking so far: General view (new): https://imgur.com/OWL56Hw https://imgur.com/OWL56Hw Artist view (new): https://imgur.com/HSdwUqw https://imgur.com/HSdwUqw Prev version: https://imgur.com/x0m01DF https://imgur.com/x0m01DF The two major things I have left (which I had in my previous player) are the "randomize/linear", add lyrics, and hopefully fix the limitations. *limitations (I've found so far, and because I don't know Rust): trickier to read file metadata (so I've made the new one organize around files/folder names), trickier to put in the tray, and I believe impossible to make the player the default program.*
