# Winamp2-js
|
|
|
|
A reimplementation of Winamp 2.9 in HTML5 and Javascript.
|
|
|
|
Works in modern versions of Firefox, Safari and Chrome. IE is [not
|
|
supported](http://caniuse.com/#feat=audio-api).
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Decodes the actual skin file in your browser so you can load your favorite
|
|
Winamp 2 skins!
|
|
- Load local audio or skin files via drag-and-drop, eject button, or "options"
|
|
button (upper left-hand corner)
|
|
- Both visualization modes: oscilloscope and spectrum
|
|
- Hotkeys
|
|
- "Shade" mini-mode
|
|
- "Doubled" mode, where the main window is twice as large: `Ctrl-D`
|
|
|
|
## Running locally vs. Production
|
|
|
|
Running Winamp2-js locally is as simple as cloning this repository and opening
|
|
`index.html` in your browser. The [`production/`](production/README.md)
|
|
directory contains some scripts to concatenate and minify the JavaScript and
|
|
CSS files.

## Predecessors

|
|
|
- [Webamp2x](http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=91850) An
|
|
impressive implementation from 2002(!). Doesn't seem to work/play in my
|
|
modern browsers.

|
- [Winamp em HTML5 e Javascript](http://www.tidbits.com.br/winamp-em-html5-e-javascript)
|
|
In 2010 a developer named Danilo posted one of his HTML5 experiments: "an
|
|
audio player simulating good old Winamp". You will have to download the zip
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
- [JuicyDrop](http://cggaurav.github.io/juicydrop/) An HTML5 implementation with
|
|
less empasis on being true to the skin, but fully featured visualizations.
|
|
@cggaurav is keeping it alive on [GitHub](https://github.com/cggaurav/juicydrop)
|
|
|
|
- [Spotiamp](http://spotiamp.com/) The folks at Spotify reimplemented Winamp as
|
|
a frontend for Spotify. Not in a browser, and only runs on Windows.
