Mellow Player is a Cross-Platform Qt Cloud Music desktop application with the main focus of working with web-based music streaming services to bring your favorite music selections to your desktop.
Being a Qt based alternative to NuvolaPlayer, specifically crafted for KaOS, Mellow Player features a minimal design inspired themeable User Interface with a nice feel.
It houses features like native desktop notifications, listening history, keyboard shortcuts, and the ability to add cloud music services that aren’t already supported in the app using plugins built with JavaScript.
