A small karaoke app made in Flutter for Linux

karaoke app for linux

a small karaoke/lyrics display for the currently running vlc song.

make sure the songs have metadata (at least title and artist).

downloading

• download from the “releases” section
• chmod +x karaoke-x86_64.appimage
• ./karaoke-x86_64.appimage

building

• step 0 – setup a linux flutter toolchain
• step 1 – flutter run

known bugs

• attempting to close the app will make it hang. looks like dbus_client doesn’t close its thread
• running under wayland produces a blank window without gdk_backend=x11 env var, probably flutter’s problem
• stdout is very spammy (dbus_client is loud)
