## Multi App vs Single App Mode

* Single App Mode

  * This mode will only use a single MPD app, which will diplay the three different MPD states. (Playing, Paused and Idle)

  * This mode syncs faster than the multi-app mode.

  

* Multi App Mode

  * This mode will use multiple, unique MPD apps: 

    * `MPD (Playing)`

    * `MPD (Paused)`

    * `MPD` (Reserved for idle)

  

  * These app names will show up next to your name on the sidebar.

  

  * This mode updates slower than the single app mode.

A [build script](build.sh) is included.

The CMakeFile will take care of finding discord-rpc. If it cannot find it, it will pull the discord-rpc GitHub repo and compile from source.
