I rebuilt one of my first coding projects

One of the first things I ever coded was a small tool to look up my most listened to Spotify tracks. Spotify only hands you that list once a year with Wrapped, and I wanted to see it whenever I felt like it.

Years later I went back and rebuilt it.

Same idea, but this time it's an actual web app. You connect your Spotify account and get your top 50 tracks in one list, any day of the year.

It's a tiny project, and that's kind of the point. Going back to something you built as a beginner and remaking it is a great way to notice how much you've changed as a developer. The first version fought me for weeks. The remake came together in a fraction of that.

If you want to see your own list, it's live here: Spotify Top 50.
