Description

Strawberry serves as a music player and organizer specifically designed for music enthusiasts and collectors. It allows users to play and oversee their digital music libraries while also offering the option to stream beloved radio stations. Released under the GPL, Strawberry is open-source, with its code accessible on GitHub. This software originated as a fork of Clementine and is developed in C++ utilizing both the Qt framework and GStreamer. It supports both versions 5 and 6 of the Qt toolkit, making it versatile for different user needs. Strawberry is completely free in terms of both cost and user freedom, although it relies on user donations for sustainability. While it has garnered a substantial following with hundreds of users in recent years, the development team is relatively small, with much of the work being managed by a single individual. Maintaining the app, operating various services, delivering updates, and addressing bugs and other technical challenges represent a significant investment of time and effort. As Strawberry continues to grow, the commitment to enhancing user experience remains a top priority for the developer.
