Raspotify is a
[Debian package and associated repository](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deb_(file_format)) for Debian Stable and other Debian Stable based/compatible OS's
which thinly wraps the awesome
[librespot](https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot) library by
[Paul Lietar](https://github.com/plietar) and others up as a [systemd](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd) [daemon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(computing)).

Raspotify is primarily intended to be used in a _[headless enviroment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headless_computer)_.

If you're looking for a turnkey audio solution for Raspberry Pi's with Spotify Connect support we recommend [moOde™ audio player](https://moodeaudio.org/).

[0.31.8.1](https://github.com/dtcooper/raspotify/releases/tag/0.31.8.1) was the last version to be built with ARMv6 support.

*You can install and run that version on an ARMv6 device, but you will never get updates and doing so is completely unsupported.*
