Fun to see other people looking into my code. Great job :)

Concertmaster is built over Electron and, as such, it is 100% JavaScript. In fact, it's not a more convenient website only because of Spotify's limitations.

It would be possible to make Concertmaster open source, but it's far from professional - it's more like a hobby I'm keeping for 3, 4 years.

(Concertmaster is more than the client. It has several server-side functions as well.)

Don't worry about code quality, it's perfectly readable. Although I only have very limited javascript knowledge, I would love to contribute if you make this open source. It's really a great project!

After a few seconds, it still freezes for me, so that's one thing I could try to fix :)

I use Concertmaster all the time on my Mac, with no problems at all. Which OS are you running?

I'm running Arch Linux with spotify version 1.0.67.582.g19436fa3. It gets stuck at this screen as soon as I start playing something:

After that, the GUI elements just don't respond at all. There is no CPU usage, so it's probably not an infinite loop.

I enabled logging, but don't see anything significant.
