A dream music library app for a Winamp-era collector

A non-developer who cares about album metadata built his own music library app with Claude while quitting smoking; it works but still has plenty of bugs.

The full story

The poster, who keeps a carefully maintained digital music library from the Winamp days, was complaining to Claude about how streaming platforms display music. Claude suggested his ideas for a music app were doable. He didn't believe he would stick at it, but he was quitting smoking and needed something to pour himself into.

The result is his own music library application. He says it is not perfect, with "bugs like crazy" and features put off to later releases, but the main features he dreamed of are there, such as rules-based shuffle in modules and attaching files to album records.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count).
