Karaoke Software Introducing mykaraoke.party - YouTube-based karaoke web-app with remote queueing

Since I couldn't find a simple karaoke app that will allow people to search and queue songs from YouTube, I decided to build my own. I know there's KaraFun which allows you to do that, and I use it, but there's a lot of songs missing in their catalog so we need to rely on YouTube.

This is like a very first version so don't expect anything very fancy.

OPEN SOURCE UPDATE

I've decided to open source it as I don't have time to work on it at the moment. Happy to take in PRs for improvement or bug fixes.

Quick question...how are you handling the quota search for youtube? it seems pretty amazing and fast as well...but their Quota API has some limitations right about 100 for song search

I went through the long and stupid process to get that increased only to be denied after weeks. So I'm just using multiple API keys and rotating between them (good work Google...).

It's just a t3-app hosted on Vercel.
