Musik is a lightweight audio player built for the KDE Plasma desktop.
It uses Qt/QML and Kirigami to provide a native KDE interface for playing a local music collection, with a simple design focused on quick playback rather than heavyweight library management.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Support for common audio formats including MP3, FLAC, and OGG.
- Playlist management and recently played history.
- Mini mode and no-header mode for a more compact playback interface.
