v1.9.0
81f11fa

First public release of Flow Crate — a personal companion app for the Flow State ambient-music newsletter.

Highlights

  • Browse & play: see the latest Flow State posts and play the day's picks on Spotify, optionally on Sonos via a "Hey Siri, play Flow Crate" shortcut.
  • Runs on your own machine: authenticates as you against the newsletter, Spotify, and your local Sonos — no middleman server. Install as a background service (macOS launchd or Linux/Raspberry Pi systemd).
  • Reliable Substack access: automatically borrows your existing browser session to unlock paid posts, with a manual SID fallback.

Install

pipx install git+https://github.com/zizmax/FlowCrate.git
flowcrate

Requires Python 3.10+. The in-app Settings page walks you through Spotify (and optional Sonos/Siri) setup. See the README for Raspberry Pi / Linux instructions.

This is an unofficial personal tool — please subscribe to and support Flow State.
