## What it is
fooyin is a highly customisable desktop music player for local music collections, built with Qt and C++. It offers flexible playback, library management, playlists, a plugin system, and FooScript for advanced formatting, queries, and autoplaylists.

## Use cases
- play flac and mp3 files with gapless playback on linux
- manage a large local music library with playlists and tag editing
- build a custom music player layout from widgets
- listen to internet radio and remote audio streams
- play vgm and tracker module music files
- scrobble to last.fm and show discord rich presence
- display and sync lyrics while listening to music
- create autoplaylists with a scripting language

## When to avoid
- you want a minimal, opinionated player with no configuration
- you primarily stream from music services rather than playing local files
- you need a mobile or web-based player
