My inspiration

I was inspired to use this make this program by a few people as I use Radio DJ for pretty much everything music relatedwise. When I started this it originally was just a command line console based program written in Java which is still available and works on pretty much any OS you can think of This started off as a thing where I wanted my actual music playing program for streams playing video games to show what was playing A quick google search led to a bunch of things that I liked but were web based and I was trying to stick away from web based programs And I know that particular person that I'm about to mention is probably going to look at this and get a kick out of it It got me thinking that is there a way that I can get the information and parse that information and this program was born

All things aside it works the way that I like there are a few more changes that I want to do to it For example debugging and what not but it should work on pretty much any system that has .NET framework 4.7.2 Obviously it says that in the requirements I will say the biggest thing that helped me was copilot I know it seems a little strange but as I am just learning how to do this I figured why not give it a shot

With that being said if you want to see it live in action you can find my links page here Pop into my streams ask me about it [https://links.smartcraft.me/@minster586]
