## What it is
An unofficial native macOS client for Bilibili built on mpv, supporting hardware-accelerated playback, low-CPU danmaku (bullet comment) rendering via libass, live streams, and video downloads. It can also play videos from nearly a hundred other sites through You-Get integration.

## Use cases
- watch bilibili videos on mac without a browser
- play videos with danmaku overlay at low cpu usage
- download bilibili videos on macos
- watch bilibili live streams with bullet comments
- play local videos with matching danmaku and subtitle files
- block danmaku by keyword while watching

## When to choose
- you want a native, battery-efficient Bilibili player on macOS instead of the web player
- you need danmaku rendering with adjustable transparency, font size, and keyword blocking
- you want to download or play videos from many sites via You-Get

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained client - the last release was in 2018 and the project appears abandoned
- you are on Windows or Linux - this is macOS only
- you need official Bilibili account features or guaranteed API compatibility
