Nuclear Music Player lets you search and play music from the best free sources

For those unfamiliar with Nuclear music player, it is a music-playing program available for Mac, Windows, and Linux that comes with built-in music search capabilities. The program connects to services such as Soundcloud and Bandcamp and lets users queue and download items from these sources. Additionally, the current version of the player offers several plugins that extend its functionality to display lyrics and add additional stream sources, as well as the option to add third-party plugins. However, due to the program's free nature and the team's philosophy behind it, the Nuclear player team also maintains that the music it sources is available freely across the services it connects to, and that it does nothing but aggregate what it can find.

In the new version, the Nuclear music player will feature a redesigned interface with support for customizable themes. Performance enhancements will include replacing the resource-intensive Electron framework with Tauri. With Tauri adding Rust support, other heavier parts of the application will be rewritten in Rust to improve performance further. Other notable improvements will include more streaming services built-in, as well as a revamped plugin workflow to make it easier for developers to release plugins for the player.
