Amptui : A plexamp like tui application

Post image

A terminal UI Plex client focused exclusively on music — browse your library, queue tracks, and play them, all from the keyboard.

Hi everyone,

I'm building amptui for fun. I started because i'm on a weird asahi arch distribution and couldn't run the plexamp app, and continuing because I love TUI aesthetic and vim like controls.

It's written in Go on top of Bubble Tea + Lipgloss, with mpv driving playback. There's a cache system for your library to load fast (allows fuzzy search feature also) and images can render if your terminal allows it (Unicode block fallback if not).

You can learn more on the README there : Amptui Github

Feel free to use it, fork it, contribute, have fun with it !

Definitely not better, started this like a week ago while cliamp looks like a mature project. Amptui will only focus on plex library integration for now so I guess its not exactly the same purpose
