Overview

The Vue Spotify Client is a web application designed to enhance the Spotify experience by incorporating features that are absent from official Spotify apps. One of the main motivations behind this project is to restore the ability to shuffle all tracks within playlist folders, a feature that was removed from mobile apps but is still highly desired by users. By creating a custom folder hierarchy, the application aims to provide a seamless experience for those who miss this functionality.

Built using modern technologies, including VueJS and various backend tools, this client aims to bridge the gap left by Spotify’s API limitations. With a clear focus on user experience and interactivity, the Vue Spotify Client is a compelling alternative for avid fans of the platform.
