A desktop application designed to achieve compatibility with Linux devices.

TikTok Music is only available in very few countries, including mine. Since I frequently use Linux and the company has not released an application for Linux, I know that many others, not just me, need a solution. We need a way to enjoy the streaming service without having to rely on the annoying web browser tab at https://music.tiktok.com/player
. That's why I created this project.
You can really make use of this to make a desktop client to anything website.
The only official mirror for the tm-desktop package is snapcraft.io https://snapcraft.io/tm-desktop
And you can install it using
sudo snap install tm-desktop
-
Minimize to tray, a feature that almost all music streaming services offer.
-
The only way to close is from the System Tray > TikTok Music > Quit, I'll update this to be an option in the future.
First, install electron
and electron-builder
globally to use this application properly.
npm install -g electron
npm install -g electron-builder
Install the dependencies of "tm-desktop" with npm.
cd tm-desktop
npm install
Then, you can use the following command to run the application:
electron .
You can also compile this for any platform, which is why I chose Electron. I recommend referring to the electron-builder docummentation to learn how to do this.
