This guide walks you through setting up the Izzy Music Player development environment.
Clone the repository
First, clone the Izzy Music Player repository from GitHub:
git clone https://github.com/ShubhamPP04/Izzy.git
cd Izzy
Python environment setup
Izzy uses a Python virtual environment to manage its backend dependencies.
Run the setup script
Make the setup script executable and run it to create the Python virtual environment:chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
This script creates a virtual environment named music_env in the project directory. Install Python dependencies
Install the required Python packages:pip install -r requirements.txt
This installs:
- ytmusicapi (>= 1.7.0)
- yt-dlp (>= 2023.12.30)
- requests (>= 2.31.0)
Verify installation
Activate the virtual environment and verify Python version:source music_env/bin/activate
python --version
The output should show Python 3.13.0 or higher.

Opening the project
You can open the project in Xcode using either method:
Troubleshooting
Python environment issues
If you encounter issues with the Python virtual environment:
# Verify Python environment
cd /path/to/Izzy
source music_env/bin/activate
python --version
# Reinstall dependencies
pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt
Permission issues
If you get permission errors when running scripts:
chmod +x setup.sh
chmod +x build_dmg.sh
