    Now the [nvim-spotify](https://github.com/KadoBOT/nvim-spotify) plugin is a wrapper for `spotify-tui`. In other words, it doesn't implement Spotify client logic anymore. While this creates a dependency and blocks the plugin in terms of new features, it also gives me less code to maintain (and fewer bugs) while using a tool that is already battle-tested and used by many users.

    Like most of us (devs), I listen to music while coding. And like most of us (neovim users), we value our productivity. So, as a hobby, I've built a Spotify plugin, so I can control it without leaving nvim. While displaying the results with Telescope.

    If you're interested in a better version of that I have a project that works with all players that support the MPRIS DBus interface: https://github.com/mariusor/mpris-ctl. I'm using it for keybindings to play/pause and show song information with a tiling windows manager.
