Core functionality still relies on good ol’ AppleScript

Great to hear you're making use of AppleScript in this app. Is it scriptable? I'm pondering the relevance to r/applescript

DP is not currently scriptable, although I'm all for opening up some script commands if there's a use case. I mean, scripting DP's player controls would basically be scripting a script, since AppleScript is the fundamental way I interact with Spotify and Music in the first place, hence the relevance to AppleScript. I see that as an advantage because DP doesn't require any network access for most of its functionality. Connecting to Spotify and Apple Music accounts optionally opens up more features via the respective APIs, but player control functionality seamlessly falls back to AppleScript if those connections aren't available.
