CloudTunes is a web application that turns cloud and online sources into an iTunes-like music experience you can access in the browser. It focuses on pulling tracks from services such as YouTube or storage backends and organizing them into searchable libraries and playlists. The interface is built to feel familiar to desktop music players, with queue management, dynamic search, and metadata views that make large collections manageable. Because playback runs in the browser, you can use it from any machine without installing a native client, and the server component coordinates indexing and streaming. Multiuser support and shareable playlists make it useful for small groups who want a central, always-available jukebox. The project showcases how open web technologies can be combined to provide a smooth, portable music app that users can self-host and customize.

Features

  • Supports streaming music/videos from multiple cloud sources (YouTube, Dropbox, etc.)
  • Metadata integration via Last.fm, MusicBrainz for album art, scrobbling, etc.
  • Playlist support: mixing cloud tracks and videos into playlists, drag & drop UI
  • Real-time updates / indexing of cloud storage (e.g. Dropbox integration)
  • Notification, keyboard shortcuts, drag/drop, sorting, resizing UI capabilities
  • Modular architecture: separate server (Python / Tornado / Celery / Mongo / Redis) and client (CoffeeScript / Backbone / SocketIO) communicating via JSON REST + WebSocket
