spotify_carthing_bt
A grab-bag of spotify car thing related hacks I'm working on.
deskthing-rs
A Rust port of https://github.com/relative/deskthing, which enables connecting the car thing directly to a PC, and interfacing with the spotify client via a custom spicetify extension.
At the time of writing, there is no prebuilt copy of the custom deskthing spicetify extension, so you'll need to install node and manually build + install the spicetify_ext
extension.
Building the Rust code should be as easy as intalling Rust, cloning the repo, and running:
cargo run
Currently windows only, but it shouldn't be too hard to get it working on linux by using a lib like bluer.
Contributions are welcome and appreciated!
future projects
Connecting the stock firmware to host-side spotify is cool, sure, I'm far more excited about the possibility of writing a custom carthing daemon + gui app to do more exotic stuff with the hardware.
Expect to see some more code in this repo soon...
