Shellbeats is a terminal-based music player for Linux and macOS that streams and downloads audio from YouTube via yt-dlp and mpv. It's interesting because it provides a keyboard-driven, distraction-free music experience for users of tiling window managers or those who prefer to stay in the terminal, with features like playlist management, background downloads, and cloud sync.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, linux users
