# SpotifyAPI-NET Documentation ##About This Library, written in C#/.NET, combines two independent SpotifyAPIs into one. **Spotify's Web API** ([link](https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/)) > Based on simple REST principles, our Web API endpoints return metadata in JSON format about artists, albums, and tracks directly from the Spotify catalogue. > The API also provides access to user-related data such as playlists and music saved in a “Your Music” library, subject to user’s authorization. **Spotify's *unofficial* Local API** > Do you ever wanted to control your local Spotify Client with some sort of API? Now you can! This API gives you full control over your spotify client. > You can get infos about the currently playing song, get its Album-Art, skip/pause and much more. It also features multiple Event-Interfaces. Both combined can be used for any kind of application. --- ##Installing * Via NuGet Package: ```cs Install-Package SpotifyAPI-NET //or Install-Package SpotifyAPI-NET -pre ``` * Download the latest binaries on the [GitHub Release Page](https://github.com/JohnnyCrazy/SpotifyAPI-NET/releases) and add it to your Project * Clone the Repo and build the project on your local machine. --- ##Projects ###[Spofy](https://github.com/eltoncezar/Spofy) by [@eltoncezar](https://github.com/eltoncezar) > A Spotify mini player and notifier for Windows
