Dopamine

Dopamine is an elegant audio player which tries to make organizing and listening to music as simple and pretty as possible. This version is written using Electron, Angular and Typescript. The original Dopamine (for Windows), which is written in WPF and C#, remains available <a href="https://github.com/digimezzo/dopamine-windows">here</a>.

Thank you JetBrains for supporting this project!

Debugging

I recommend using JetBrains Rider or WebStorm to debug this project. The .run folder contains a debugging configuration Debug renderer that allows you to attach to the Dopamine instance that is started when running npm start. Most of the code runs in the Electron renderer. That is why only a renderer configuration is provided for now.
