Koito is a modern, themeable, ListenBrainz-compatible scrobbler that I created because I am a data-addicted self-hoster that wanted something
a little bit better than what is currently available for my listening habits.
Koito is a modern, themeable ListenBrainz-compatible scrobbler for self-hosters who want control over their data and insights into their listening habits.
It supports relaying to other compatible scrobblers, so you can try it safely without replacing your current setup.

with Koito quite yet, you can [set up a relay](https://koito.io/guides/scrobbler/#set-up-a-relay) from Koito to another ListenBrainz-compatible
scrobbler. This is what I've been doing for the entire development of this app and it hasn't failed me once. Or, you can always use something
like [multi-scrobbler](https://github.com/FoxxMD/multi-scrobbler).

## Contributing
There are currently some known issues that I am actively working on, in addition to adding new features. If you want to contribute (especially more and more robust testing) feel free to fork the repository and make a pull request with your changes.
If you have any feature ideas, open a GitHub issue to let me know. I'm sorting through ideas to decide which data visualizations and customization options to add next.
## Albums that fueled development + notes
More relevant here than any of my other projects...
Not just during development, you can see my complete listening data on my [live demo instance](https://koito.mnrva.dev).
#### Random notes
- I find it a little annoying when READMEs use emoji but everyone else is doing it so I felt like I had to...
- It's funny how you can see the days in my listening history when I was just working on this project because they have way more listens than other days.
- About 50% of the reason I built this was minor/not-so-minor greivances with Maloja. Could I have just contributed to Maloja? Maybe, but I like building stuff and I like Koito's UI a lot more anyways.
