TermNavi Terminal Navidrome Client ppc64

So the other day I tried to connect to my Navidrome MP3 Streaming Server, I call it “Spotify at Home”, via Webinterface to listen to some music, but there were no way to do this. The Webbrowsers available are too old. Sad.

So I decided to programm a really small Navidrome Terminal Client called TermNavi (yes I know… need better name) to listen to my MP3. And what shall I say? The first implementation is ready. I tested and successfully compiled on aarch64 (my MacMini M4) and the legendary Powermac G5 with ARCH Linux or Debian Sid ppc64.

So this it is:

• MVP for playback
• Rust for pgramming
• Ratatui für the Terminal UI (TUI)
• a Powermac G5 with PPC Linux

Really happy, it is my first rust project.

known bugs

• State handling is missing
• UI Rendering for more selections
• scroll logic is worst

And as a now cool hacker guy, I pushed everything in my github repo. But don’t expect too much, I am a worst programmer, I often do not understand what is going on and I have everything in one file, the main.rs :-)
