Devialify - A Developer's Spotify

Since no restrictions were set, I made the app as simple as possible. In a nutshell: you can create playlists and add tracks to each playlist. The rest of the API is to add/remove tracks, add/remove playlists, play/pause/back/skip tracks.

I beleive the code is self explanatory, the only meaningful note is that the MediaPlayer is a singleton. I try to follow my previous manager (Jonathan Boccara)'s advice when it comes to commenting the codebase, 'only add comments that you would tell someone sitting next to you and reading the code' (Link to article on FLUENT CPP).

Beyond that, the main improvement I can imagine (beside processing actual music files) is how tracks are stored, in a more realistic scenario, tracks would be all be stored in some container and only tags would be shared with a certain playlist, given the fact that a single track can be available in many playlists.

The app is a CMAKE project. That's the only pre-requisite needed to build/run the app. Assuming CMake is installed and exists in your PATH. Please run:

python3 ./run.py

The script will automatically build and run the executable.
