Nuclear is a cross-platform desktop music player that aggregates multiple online audio sources into a single interface. It functions as a streaming music aggregator and a local library manager, allowing users to search for and play audio tracks while maintaining persistent collections and playback queues.
The application utilizes a modular architecture that supports custom plugins, enabling users to extend core functionality by adding new streaming sources, metadata providers, and interface features. This design allows for the normalization of disparate audio sources through a unified abstraction layer, ensuring consistent playback across different providers.
Beyond standard media playback, the platform includes support for automated control, allowing external agents or scripts to interact with the player through a standardized communication protocol. Users can manage their personal music collections by importing and exporting playlists, ensuring that library configurations remain consistent across sessions.
The software is distributed as a desktop application and provides documentation for its plugin system and configuration options.
