Music App

This is a web app for music lovers, the functionalites of the web app include:

• Searching for Music on basis of 3 categories
  • Top charts
  • Hot charts
  • Weekly top charts
• The search is carried out on the basis of countries, the web app currently offers 4 countries to search by:
  • USA
  • UK
  • India
  • Italy
• There is also a feature to limit the number of results you want from the search, this parameter is important and doesn't have any default value
• Another feature is viewing a snippet of the lyrics of the songs.

The Web app uses the MusixMatch API. The Web app uses Vanilla JS to make AJAX requests using the XMLHttpRequest object. Two methods of the API are put into use:

• chart.tracks.get
• track.lyrics.get

The code uses a Free API Key and hence the track.lyrics.get method only returns 30% of the lyrics of a particular song.

The design of the site has been kept pretty minimalistic by me, as I mainly wanted to this as a small project particulary to make a project demonstrating AJAX using Vanilla JS.

The Request to the API may fail due to CORS, Please make sure you have some kind of CORS extension added to your browser.

Anyone may contribute to the project, if they feel that they can make the code better or add any other feature.
