Auxio
A simple, rational music player for android.
## About
Auxio is a local music player with a fast, reliable UI/UX without the many useless features present in other music players. Built off of [ExoPlayer](https://exoplayer.dev/), Auxio has superior library support and listening quality compared to other apps that use outdated android functionality. In short, **It plays music.**
I primarily built Auxio for myself, but you can use it too, I guess.
**The default branch is the development version of the repository. For a stable version, see the master branch.**

## Building
Auxio relies on a custom version of ExoPlayer that enables some extra features. This adds some caveats to
the build process:
1. `cmake` and `ninja-build` must be installed before building the project.
2. The project uses submodules, so when cloning initially, use `git clone --recurse-submodules` to properly
download the external code.
3. You are **unable** to build this project on windows, as the custom ExoPlayer build runs shell scripts that
will only work on unix-based systems.
## Contributing
Auxio accepts most contributions as long as they follow the [Contribution Guidelines](/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).
However, feature additions and major UI changes are less likely to be accepted. See
[Why Are These Features Missing?](https://github.com/OxygenCobalt/Auxio/wiki/Why-Are-These-Features-Missing%3F)
