Meelo
Self-hosted music server focused on local library playback
Meelo is a self-hosted music server for managing and streaming a personal music library. It scans local audio files, builds a browsable catalog, and provides playback through a web UI.
Key Features
- Library scanning/indexing of local music files into an organized catalog
- Browsing by common music facets (artists, albums, tracks) in a web interface
- In-browser playback/streaming of your library
- Metadata handling based on embedded tags (as supported by the project)
Use Cases
- Run a private “home Spotify” for a household’s local music collection
- Centralize a music library on a server/NAS and play it from multiple devices
- Replace ad‑supported music services for listening to owned/ripped music
Limitations and Considerations
- Project documentation and feature coverage appear limited in the repository; expect gaps compared to mature media servers (e.g., advanced metadata matching, mobile apps, integrations).
Meelo is best suited for users who primarily want a lightweight, web-based way to browse and play an existing local music library. If you need rich ecosystem integrations or advanced library tooling, consider more established music servers.
