On June 22, versions 0.11.0 and 0.11.1 were released fooyin — a music player focused on individual customization. It offers numerous widgets for managing and playing a local music collection. The player has extensive extension capabilities due to its plugin system and includes FooScript — a scripting language for advanced widget customization.
You can fully customize the user interface by switching to layout editing mode: starting from scratch or using a ready-made one.
The project is written in C++ and the Qt6 framework, and it is distributed under the GNU GPL 3 license.
