# Song Shuffling Algorithm using Java. 


Currently, the program requires a .env file which you will have to get from a spotify app, and install all the dependenceis via npm install.   


In addition, the playlist can only have a maximum of 100 songs and must be set to public.

Inspired from a video by [gabi belle](https://www.youtube.com/@itsgabibelle) on [Why Spotify Playlists Never Truly Shuffle](https://youtu.be/OdLyKETk5o0)  

There are many useful datas I am collecting which I am directly using Spotify API for. For example, for [Artist](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-an-artist), for [Track](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-track), [Track Audio Anaylsis](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-audio-analysis) and [Track's feature](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-audio-features), for [Album](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-an-album) and for [Playlist](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/get-playlist).   

   

I have also used the following website to further the study on how to shuffle songs effectively.
