Usage

Preparation

To use the app, you need to get a client ID. To do that,

• Go to this website
• Create an app:
  • Click the "create" button
  • Type whatever you want into the first 3 fields
  • In the "Redirect URIs" field, paste in "http://localhost:5543/callback"
  • Check "Web API" at the bottom
  • Agree to the terms
  • Click Save
• Click the "Settings" button at the top right of the page
• Save the "Client ID" value somewhere

Setup

• Launch the app
• Paste in your Client ID in the field
• Log in to Spotify with the same account you used to create the app previously

Installation

Prebuilt

• Go to the Releases tab and download both the .msixbundle nad .cer files.
• Make sure you have App Installer on your machine (Alternative methods of installation or "debloated" machines are not supported.)
• Open the .cer file, install in for either all users and choose "Trusted people" as the certificate store (manually!)
• Open and .msixbundle file with App Installer and click "Install"
• Done!

From source

• Open the repo in Visual Studio (in my case, 2022 Community)
  • make sure you have the UWP workload and Windows 11 10.0.22621.0 SDK installed.
• Click F5 or choose "Local Machine" in the options on top.
• Done!
