Groover is a simple remote for the Groove Basin music player daemon. It uses GTK+ and WebKitGTK+ to provide a window where Groove Basin's standard web interface is loaded — honestly I do not see the whole point of re-creating the UI from scratch, so the idea is to keep Groover simple, and focus on desktop integration instead.
- Shows the Groove Basin UI as a standalone application (and its own icon, and so on), without the need to launch a complete web browser to access it. This is not very different from the “web application mode” of Web; but does not require it to be installed.
- Simple “Now Playing” screen mode which uses only GTK+ widgets, without requiring WebKitGTK+ to load Groove Basin's web UI.
- Support acting as a command-line remote for Groove Basin.
- MPRIS2 provider, so other applications can control Groove Basin via a compatible client.
