Groove is a full-featured Spotify

Groove is a full-featured Spotify clone I built from scratch to sharpen my React skills and demonstrate what I can do with complex UI and real-world app architecture. It replicates the core Spotify experience browsing music, playing tracks, and navigating a polished streaming interface.

This project pushed me to handle things like audio playback state, dynamic routing between views, and building a sidebar + player layout that stays consistent across the whole app the same patterns used in production-grade music platforms.

It's a strong example of my ability to take a complex product, break it down into components, and build something that genuinely looks and feels like the real thing.
