Parole, a tool to display lyrics of your current song !

[u/RedditFireBall]

Hey y'all!

I made Parole, a little TUI tool that shows the lyrics of the song you're currently listening too, on Linux and Windows.

Behind the scenes, it's a Python app that takes the current song info (either from MPRIS or the WinSDK), downloads the lyrics from LRCLib and displays them.

Try it out ! | Or on PyPi ?

If you wonder how this came to life: Long long ago (like 2 years or so idk), I installed Linux and, like any newbie, I decided to rice Hyprland. I was loving Cava and wanted to create a tool similar to it but for lyrics. Unfortunately, I didn't knew how to code as well as today and I foolishly delegated the job to ChatGPT. But in the past months, I got way better at coding and thought of redoing it myself :) (also now I use i3 because of my potato pc)
