🎧 I Built a Terminal-Based Music Player for Linux (Termi-Music)

Most music players today are heavy, GUI-based, and full of distractions.

So I decided to build something different β€” a minimal, aesthetic, terminal-based music player that runs directly in your Linux shell.

πŸ”— GitHub: https://github.com/Aman-codes0-0/Termi-music.git


πŸš€ Why I Built This

As someone who enjoys working in the terminal, I wanted a music player that:

  • Doesn’t break my workflow
  • Feels lightweight and fast
  • Matches the developer environment

Instead of switching between apps, I wanted music control right inside the terminal.


βš™οΈ Features

  • 🎡 Play music directly from terminal
  • ⚑ Lightweight and fast
  • πŸ’» Clean CLI-based interface
  • 🧠 Designed for developer workflow

πŸ› οΈ Tech Stack

  • Python / textual
  • Linux CLI environment
  • Audio handling libraries

πŸ’‘ What I Learned

Building this project helped me understand:

  • How CLI tools are designed
  • Handling system-level operations in Linux
  • Working with audio playback in terminal apps

- Structuring a real-world project
