Auricle is a native desktop music player for Windows, built with Rust and the Slint UI toolkit. It provides fast search, a persistent queue, likes/history, OS media-key integration, and a local audio cache — all in a lightweight native shell with no embedded web view.

Features

  • Fast Search - Search YouTube Music's full catalogue instantly via the native ytmapi-rs client.
  • Persistent Queue - Your queue and listening history survive across restarts, stored locally with SQLite.
  • Likes & History - Track what you love and revisit what you've played, offline and always available.
  • OS Media Keys - Play, pause, skip — your keyboard media controls just work via souvlaki integration.
  • Local Audio Cache - LRU on-disk cache (default 500 MB) keeps recently played tracks ready for instant replay.
  • Native & Lightweight - Built in Rust with the Slint UI toolkit — no Electron, no web view, minimal RAM footprint.
  • System Tray - Minimize to tray and keep music running in the background without cluttering your taskbar.
  • Open Source - Licensed under GPLv3. Inspect the code, contribute, or fork it freely.
