Welcome to my D&DMusicPlayer project

Music and Ambience is a core element to any good D&D session. Unnoticed, it has a HUGE impact on the atmosphere in the room and helps to immerse everyone around the table into the game. Having to painfully look up fitting music online or locally breaks the immersion of everyone involved.

The Goal of this Project is simplifying playing, pausing and especially switching music down to the press of a single button.

NEW: Now installable via executable

I finally got around to learn how building and distributing works with electron. On the right side under releases you can find the setup.exe of the latest version. Currently there is sadly no finished version, I started reworking and am not done, so many basic features don't work.
