Just Gpt is used in this project mainly to fix bugs. Though i did not fully copy gpts code i did write the snippets it gave me. It was used in making the lyrics function, config.json saving and loading function, playing next and previous song function, shuffle function, centering the logo. Other places i use it to help me fix bugs like 2 songs skipping at once when pressed next, not setted directory crashing the player.
Honestly it was a fun experience for me making my first usable py project!

devlog#4 finally added a config,json and save and load function to save the music file path. now it can remember the path so that you dont need to change the path everytime you want to play songs! Next i will add basic customization and fix a few bugs.

devlog#1 For a few days im seeing those reels in insta where people play lyrics in terminal. Im wanting to do the same but making it more dynamic with features such as playing songs in suffle, repeat, finding lyrics file and loadin on its own and a few customization! Today i get the lyrics and basic control system to work. I used this https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/music.html for basics of playing music. I took the help of gpt to write the code that formates the lrc file. fnally im making the ui with ascii
