Rockbox Zig is a modern rewrite of the classic Rockbox audio player, combining Rust and Zig to expose the full Rockbox audio engine through gRPC, GraphQL, HTTP, and MPD APIs in a single binary. It supports multi-room audio output via AirPlay, Snapcast, and Squeezelite, making it a versatile, high-performance music server for headless or multi-room setups. The project is notable for its technical depth, extensive API surface, and integration with modern streaming protocols.
