What's the purpose of this package?

This is a spotify clone that uses youtube as backend. Playlists, categories etc all fetched from Spotify API. Only tracks are played by youtube.

How does it work?

Python(FastAPI) is used at backend. It uses beatifulsoup module to fetch track url from youtube and passes to react-player.

What is the fetching algorithm?

As simple as searching track artist + track title and returning the first result from youtube.

Why use web crawler instead of Google API?

Google limits the usage of api for free users. It's a workaround for it and i must say it works pretty well.
