Cosmic Noise

Many thanks to iced, its creator and the amazing discord community.

An ambient noise player built with Rust and Iced, heavily inspired by Blanket.

The audio heavy lifting is done by kira library!

Features

• Multiple ambient sound tracks (rain, waves, birds, etc. they are basically taken from Blanke, i will add later background tracks unique to this player)
• Individual volume control for each track
• Multiple themes (Tokyo Night, Gruvbox, Catppuccin, and more to be added when UI settles in)
• Cross-platform support (works on mac, win and linux, though linux is main focus)
• Custom window controls (resizing and dragging) and toolbar

Installation

From Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/bq-wrongway/cosmic-noise.git

Adding Your Own Sounds

Place your audio files in one of these directories: (keep in mind directories can differ, based on platform)

• ~/.local/share/cosmic-noise/sounds/ Linux
• ~Library/Application Support/cosmic-noise/sounds/ Mac Supported formats: MP3, OGG, FLAC, WAV

Further development

• System tray
• Making global controls visibility dynamic
• Create pipeline to build mac/windows/linux builds (should depend on iced 0.14 when released)
• UI needs to be enhanced and improved
• Animations
• Packaging (flatpak, .msi, .app)
• Translations
