Credits

mStream is built on top some great open-source libraries:

• music-metadata – The best metadata parser for NodeJS
• LokiJS – A native, in-memory, database written in JavaScript. LokiJS is the reason mStream is so fast and easy to install
• Butterchurn – A clone of Milkdrop Visualizer written in JavaScript

And thanks to the LinuxServer.io group for maintaining the Docker image!
