SpotifyKaraoke
A browser-based web app for syncing lyrics to Spotify playback; it served as a successful technical proof-of-concept before the official feature was released.
Why I Built SpotifyKaraoke
I built a web application designed to allow users to sing along to their favorite Spotify songs by adding a lyrics overlay. I created it primarily for myself and my sister to solve the lack of native lyrics on the platform at the time.

What Went Wrong
I had no idea what to add next and never thought about the real marketing of it. The project was ultimately discontinued after Spotify officially integrated Musixmatch lyrics directly into their app, which was the core feature I had built.
Lessons Learned
I realized there was a real market for the idea since Spotify decided to do it as well. I learned that I should have shared the project more and focused on promotion. It was also a great test for me as a developer, as it was my first big project that I took all the way to production.
