a_spotify_web_client

Desktop UI for spotify (work in progress). (Current website can be found Here)

Installing on Local Machine

• you must install node 12.8.0 (the one with hooks, also specified in .nvmrc)
• install the packages (yarn install or npm install) you must create a project on the spotify dev portal to get id and secret for using the Spotify API
• place these strings under the names SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET and SPOTIFY_CLIENT_IDin your ~/.bash_profile or passing them as env vars to the programs (i don't know why you would but you can)

Running the Server

• just run node server.js in the appropriate directory, and you're set
• please note that this only works currently on a local machine, as I haven't added an additional redirect url to authorize localhost:8080
