What is this?

nuclear is a free music streaming program that pulls content from free sources all over the internet.

If you know mps-youtube, this is a similar music player but with a GUI. It's also focusing more on audio. Imagine Spotify which you don't have to pay for and with a bigger library.

What if I am religiously opposed to Electron?

Development process

Use lerna:

$ npm i -g lerna #installs lerna globally
$ lerna bootstrap
$ npm start

A new window should open that will load the web app and run Nuclear.

To build for current operating system:

$ lerna bootstrap
$ npm run build

Instead of build you can use build:all to build for all operating systems. The binaries will be in packages/app/release

It's also possible to run the development environment using docker containers.

You will need docker and docker-compose. You need to allow the root user to connect to X11 display, and then you can run docker-compose:

$ xhost SI:localuser:root
$ sudo docker-compose up dev

Screenshots

This will be updated as the program evolves.
