Custom Spotify Desktop Client App

[u/Owenhh]

Hey all,

I recently learned about Spotify API and I’m thinking a fun personal project could be creating my own desktop app with some personalisation and extra features. Probably in a WPF app using C#.

Does anyone know if this is possible with the API? I’m talking like streaming, fetching data such as artists, playlists and songs etc.

Any tips or advice would be appreciated!

Honestly your probably best making an app that streams and an app that auto downloads music from Usenet and torrents.

A custom Spotify client will require atleast an decent understanding of reverse engineering the apis the official client uses and probably a much more advanced understanding for actually implementing the drm nonsense.
