Could you build this?
Partial A native desktop UI wrapping Spotify's web player is achievable with a standard toolkit, but the custom native rendering engine and browser-driving integration are hard pieces that vibe coding won't easily produce.
What it would actually take: Use a native UI toolkit (Qt, GTK, or Tauri/Rust) for the interface and control the installed browser's Spotify web player via DevTools protocol or a browser profile for playback and state. Media keys, cross-platform packaging, and a stable way to read now-playing metadata are the difficult parts. This needs experience with desktop UI frameworks and browser automation that stays robust as Spotify's web player changes.
