A small thing, kept small

Sequshii started in 2024 because the music I care about is not on any streaming service, and the players that could handle a local library either wanted me to reorganise it first or hadn't been touched in years.

It is one person working on it in evenings. That shapes what it does. The scanner, the player, and the transcoder get attention; recommendations, social features, and anything that needs a server I have to run for you do not.

What it will not do

• Move, rename, or retag your files. The library on disk stays exactly as you left it.
• Phone home. The server makes outbound requests only for scrobbling, and only if you turn it on.
• Grow a mobile app. The Subsonic API is there so you can use one of the good ones that already exists.

Where it is going

The storage layer is the thing holding up a 1.0. S3 works for reading but the cache behaviour around it is wrong, and I would rather fix that than tag a version and support two designs. After that: source release, then proper offline caching in the browser.

Beta access

Container images are handed out by email during beta so I can keep the number of installs small enough to actually answer questions about. If you have a library and somewhere to run it, say hello — a sentence about your setup is enough.

Bug reports go to the same address. Include the version, the browser, and the output of docker logs sequshii --tail 100.
