Just like the original, now on your Mac, Windows or a Linux!
Unofficial app. It has most of the functionality of the original Winamp, but it's still more of a proof of concept. Based on the Webamp - "A reimplementation of Winamp 2.9 in HTML5 and JavaScript." by the @captbaritone. Linux support via AppImage and .deb package tested on the Ubuntu 18.04.

- "Media Keys" support (Play, Pause, Stop, Previous, Next) via Media Transport Controls on Windows, MPRemoteCommandCenter on Mac and D-BUS on Linux - inspiration from electron-media-service
- Implement Taskbar media control buttons
- Milkdrop visualizer
- Persisting state of the player
- Support for multiple displays
- Automatic updates (prepared, notifications already done)
- Support file associations
- Features that can't be in the web version (by extending the API)
- Try to integrate Spotify (inspiration from winampify-js?), milkdrop can be integrated using microphone (?) due to problems with the DRM
Some operating systems, especially Windows or some browsers do not trust the installation files because they are not digitally signed and/or commonly used yet. Unfortunately, code signing certificates that would help us overcome this cost hundreds of euro per year. This project does not have any funding and therefore can't afford it. It's recommended to verify the checksum of the files if you are worried. Every commit (and therefore published checksum) is signed in this repository.
Caused by the disabled hardware acceleration on the Linux. The reason is issues with the transparency on the Chromium project.
Make sure you have latest node.js and yarn.
Clone this repository, install dependencies and run the start script:
git clone https://github.com/durasj/webamp-desktop.git
cd webamp-desktop
yarn install
yarn start
After the build has completed, you should see one window with the app and one with developer tools. To try some changes, you can: change the code in the ./src dir, close the current window and run the yarn start again.
This project is possible thanks to the Webamp from @captbaritone and wonderful open source work of others like @jberg and authors of many dependencies.
