It did happen in the Muslim world. There are "slave" dynasties in many parts of that world (Egypt, India) which were robust dynasties borne out of freed slaves.

I think Muziqi ought to satisfy most of these for audiobooks. Podcasts is on the list.

A feature-rich, nice looking audio player for those who don't stream music: https://sakunlabs.com/muziqi

It has 90% of the features that I wanted, and now I am working on what my users want.

Not open source, but it’s the closest I have come to Winamp. It’s really good!

Not directly, but like most of the examples in the repository, they can be recreated with some custom drawing.

Thank you for Swift Charts. I was surprised by how flexible and powerful the API is.

I made a music app for iOS for myself, after not finding anything that did what I wanted as a non-streamer: visualization, audiobooks support, section loops, bookmarks, sleep timers, import from any source, etc.

In the end, I did put it on the App Store (after months of cleanup!) but it's easily the most used app on my phone.

I am almost ready with the music app that I have always wanted; a fully featured app for those of us who love to buy and listen to our own collection. Here is an introductory blog post: https://sakunlabs.com/blog/muziqi-intro/

Some of the features I am including in this version: - import music from the Music app (downloaded locally), from Files app, via a web server - a music visualizer, with three presets - waveform views - mark and store segments of a song - bookmarks - an equalizer and a bunch of smaller features, like pinning music to the Home view, remembering playback for an album or playlist.

Building a successor to https://metaset.io. My first stab at this problem (a native data visualization app) was OK, but left a lot to be desired in efficient user workflow.

I am having another go at it, this time with Swift Charts and SwiftUI on the Mac.

How different is the state managementin SwiftUI compared to the state in rui?
