Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m the maker of Stave. I got so tired of streaming services randomly removing my favorite tracks, so I decided to go back to downloading local music. The problem? Most local music players look like they were built in 2005. So, I built Stave to be the ultimate local-first music hub. Here is what makes it special: Built-in Downloads: Don't have the .mp3? Search and download directly from YouTube inside the app (powered by yt-dlp). Auto-Tagging: Drop in your messy files and Stave will automatically pull the correct metadata and high-res cover art from iTunes. Vibe-matching UI: The transparent window dynamically shifts its accent colors based on what's playing. Lightweight: Built on Tauri v2 (Rust), so it's incredibly fast and uses way less memory than Electron apps. It's completely free and open-source. I'd love to hear your feedback, feature requests, or answer any questions you have!
