A cross-platform application (focused on Windows) that let's you sing along to your favorite songs regardless the player by displaying the lyrics of the currently playing song on your desktop wallpaper, notification pane, terminal or in a locally hosted webpage.
Notes: Forked by me for personal use. It focuses on Windows 10 and Spotify desktop client. I can't guarantee it will work on other OS or other music players.

python build.py - Tray is partially broken (only default button works) on Linux in the compiled versions. (Works fine when running from source)
- Notification library has an issue on windows, I believe it will be fixed soon, see open issue: samschott/desktop-notifier#95
- I'm not a dev, just an enthusiast. I had a special niche need for this, so I used AI (Claude) to help me understand the code and modify it to my needs.
- All of the code edits are made by AI, so it's prone to bugs right now.
The license is the same as the original project.
- Konstantinos Petrakis for amazing work the original project
