1. Visit https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard
2. Create a new app (name it anything)
3. Note your Client ID and Client Secret
4. Set Redirect URI to: http://127.0.0.1:8888

--------------------
Some packages may be optional, but installing all ensures compatibility:

pkg install rust python cmake clang \
alsa-lib alsa-plugins alsa-seq-server alsa-sndio alsa-utils \
zita-alsa-pcmi

Versions may vary—adjust as needed for your system.

cd librespot
cargo build --no-default-features --features "rustls-tls-native-roots rodio-backend"

You can install via ports or build from source:

1. Launch spotify-qt
2. Enter your Spotify App ID and Secret
