myMPD

myMPD is a lightweight MPD web client that runs without a dedicated webserver or interpreter. It's tuned for minimal resource usage and requires only very litte dependencies. myMPD is a fork of ympd (https://github.com/notandy/ympd).

This fork provides a reworked ui based on Bootstrap 4 and a modernized backend.

Design principles:

• Keep it small and simple
• Uses only mpd as source of truth
• Mobile first UI
• Keep security in mind

Featurelist:

• Browse mpd database by artist
• Browse filesystem and playlists
• Queue management
• Advanced search
• Progressiv Web App enabled
• Local coverart support

myMPD is work in progress. Bugreportes and feature requests are very welcome. Please use the issues function from github (https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/issues). Planed functions are managed in a github project (https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/projects/1).
