Soundnode App – Open Source Project

One of the open source projects I found very interesting on Github is the Soundnode App.

As we know, SoundCloud is a music streaming platform that runs on the web. But have you ever wonder if they have a desktop client? They don’t, for whatever reason.

However, that’s what Soundnode has achieved. It supports SoundCloud for desktop Mac, Windows, and Linux, and has almost all the basic features you need. Take a look at their website

Besides you can go and have a SoundCloud desktop client, another great thing about the project is really inspiring. Look at the language they have used, it’s mainly JavaScript(62%, Node.js & AngularJs), HTML and CSS. And they use a framework called Electron to build it cross-platform. See how amazing you could use common web knowledge in open source world to turn something into possible.
