- Added support for custom aps like: VSC, Chrome or ANY APP because you need a Spotify Premium account to synk your status to slack so this should be more helpfull :)

Released the Tkinter app, and fixed the terminal version
Here’s a brief overview of the project until now
A simple Python desktop app (using Tkinter) which automatically syncs your Slack status with the song currently playing on Spotify.
Spotify uses the Authorization Code Flow with OAuth 2.0. The user enters their Client ID & Secret, the app opens the browser and goes to the Spotify authorization page, the app catches the URL with the authorization code on its local HTTP server on port 9090, and the code is exchanged for an access and refresh token, which auto-renews in the background every ~3000 seconds.
Slack authentication is much simpler, just a Bearer Token (User OAuth Token) which the user enters themselves.
I will release soon a tutorial on how to actually pair the app, and make a readme :D

Created a Beta terminal version that does not synchronize the time elapsed from Spotify and consumes only about 50 MB of RAM and 1% of CPU but is buggy
