Requires installing Go and editing a configuration file with your station's details before running the server.
piStreamRadio-frontend is a web interface for an internet radio station. It gives you a ready-made website where visitors can listen to a live stream, browse a playlist of songs, and see what's currently playing. Think of it as the public-facing "tuner" for your station, the page someone would open in their browser to tune in. The project is built using Go (a programming language) and runs as a small web server. It uses AMP, which is a framework designed to make web pages load quickly, particularly on mobile devices. The visual design comes from AMP Start and Animate.css, which handle the layout and add smooth transitions without you needing to build those pieces from scratch. To set it up, you install Go, copy the project, edit a configuration file with your station's details, and run a single command to start the server. Who would use this? Someone running an internet radio station who needs a website but doesn't want to design one from the ground up. For example, a hobbyist streaming music from a Raspberry Pi, or a small community radio project that wants a clean page where listeners can press play and see the playlist. The README points to a live example called Galaxy Noise Radio, which shows what a finished site looks like in practice. What's notable is how customizable it is without requiring deep technical knowledge. The site's content and settings are controlled by JSON files, simple text files with labeled values you can edit. If you just want to change the station name, stream URL, or playlist details, you edit those files and you're done. More technical users can dig into the HTML templates or add entirely new pages by creating folders and adding a line to the main program file. This layered approach lets beginners tweak the basics while leaving room for developers to reshape the whole thing.
