Why it's yours

Still brewing. MIT when it ships — built to be owned: your hardware, your data, no lock-in.

The problem

A minimal, native Navidrome player for Apple devices. Swift.

You run Navidrome for your self-hosted library, but reaching it in a browser breaks the native flow — no queue, no now-playing, no shelf that feels at home on Apple devices.

What you do

Point Shelvarr at your Navidrome server and play.

  1. Connect to your library and browse artists, albums, and playlists.
  2. Queue tracks and keep playback controls in the shell.
  3. Search the library without hunting through a web player.

What you get

  • Native Apple shell. Built in Swift for iOS and macOS, so playback feels at home on Apple devices.
  • Library without the browser. Browse and play your Navidrome collection directly, instead of through a web page.
  • Queue and now-playing. Keep the queue and playback controls together in one player.
  • Still brewing in the workshop — no public build or links yet.
