# SpoTUI
SpoTUI is a terminal-style Spotify skin built for Spicetify.
SpoTUI is a terminal-inspired theme for Spotify that overlays a custom, keyboard-driven interface directly inside the Spotify client. It is built for [Spicetify](https://spicetify.app/).
It combines:
- a custom UI overlay in `theme.js`
- theme styling in `user.css`
- Spotify color values in `color.ini`
## How It Works
## Screenshot
SpoTUI is a self-contained Spicetify theme that uses:
- **`theme.js`**: A vanilla JavaScript component that creates and manages the entire TUI, including panels, commands, and Spotify API interactions.
- **`user.css`**: CSS overrides to hide the default Spotify UI and style the SpoTUI interface.
- **`color.ini`**: Standard Spicetify color definitions.
