## What it is
Sonixd is a cross-platform Electron desktop music player for Subsonic-API and Jellyfin compatible servers, with playlist management, gapless/crossfade playback, and theming. It is now in maintenance mode as its successor Feishin is being developed.

## Use cases
- play music from my navidrome server on desktop
- subsonic client for windows and mac
- desktop player for jellyfin music library
- manage playlists on my self-hosted music server
- gapless playback client for airsonic

## When to choose
- you use a Subsonic-API or Jellyfin compatible music server and want a full-featured desktop client
- you need large playlist/queue handling and playlist editing
- you want cross-platform support with theming and media key integration

## When to avoid
- you want active development or new features - the project is in maintenance mode
