    title: Actually lightweight
    details: A single native binary with no browser engine anywhere in the process. It starts in well under a second and stays small while it runs.
  - icon: 🔊
    title: A real Spotify Connect device
    details: Play on this computer, gapless and up to 320 kbps, or push the music to any speaker, phone, or TV and keep controlling it from the same window.
  - icon: 📚
    title: Your whole library
    details: Playlists, Liked Songs, albums, artists, and podcasts, with search across all of it and playlist editing where you own the playlist.
  - icon: 🎨
    title: Beautiful by intent
    details: Pages and the player take their colour from the album art. Light, dark, or follow the system, with the layout you already know from Spotify.
  - icon: ⌨️
    title: Keyboard-first, desktop-native
    details: Shortcuts for everything, MPRIS media controls on Linux, and a tray that keeps the music playing after you close the window.
  - icon: 🔓
    title: Open source
    details: MIT-licensed Rust on egui and librespot, with an honest write-up of how it talks to Spotify.
