How to install

1. Download the Python file

Download the Python file from above and paste it into a new folder wherever you want.

2. Configure Spotify

Go to developer.spotify.com and log in with your Spotify account. Then go to "Dashboard" and press "Create App," filling out the form with the following:
App name: SpotiOver
App description: Overlay
Redirect URIs: http://localhost:8888/callback
Which API/SDKs are you planning to use?: Web API

Then go to your new App, and under "Settings," copy your Client-ID and Client-Secret. Now open the Python file and paste the following:
Your client ID in line 199: ```client_id="Your-Client-ID"```
Your client secret in line 200: ```client_secret="Your-Client-Secret"```

3. Add it to Autostart

Make sure you have Python and pip installed. Open your terminal or PowerShell and type:
```pip install pyinstaller```
if you haven’t already installed PyInstaller. Then, use `cd` to navigate to the folder where your Python file is located. Once there, use:
```pyinstaller --onefile --windowed --hidden-import pynput.keyboard._win32 --hidden-import pynput.mouse._win32 --name SpotiOver spotiover.py```
Wait a few seconds to minutes until the terminal says: "Building EXE from exe-00.toc completed successfully." Now, press WIN + R and type in ```shell:startup```. Create a shortcut to `yourpath/folder/pythonfile/dist/SpotiOver.exe`.

And now you're ready
