Spicetify for Spotify

Spicetify is a multiplatform command-line tool to customize the official Spotify client.

Installation

If you using Windows, you can run simple command in PowerShell

iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spicetify/cli/main/install.ps1 | iex

If you using Linux/Mac, you can run simple command in your terminal

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spicetify/cli/main/install.sh | sh

when running command above, select install marketplace which gives you access to a tab in Spotify's sidebar that allows you to search for and install themes, extensions, and snippets.

Basic Usage

After installing Spicetify and Spicetify's Marketplace, you can use it to customize your Spotify client using all the available extensions and themes found in the Marketplace.

Updating

Spotify, every now and then, updates its client. Since we have no power over this process, you will likely need to re-apply Spicetify.

However, the update might have major changes to the client, which means you will need to run spicetify update (spicetify upgrade in Spicetify versions below 2.27.0) every time you update Spotify. If no update for Spicetify is available, it means that it either still works by simply running spicetify backup apply, or that we are still working on updating Spicetify to work on the new version.
