Modern interfaces for the software you already love. Beautiful, responsive frontends — no forks, no rewrites, just better UX.
Great software deserves
great interfaces
Powerful open-source tools often ship with dated or minimal UIs. Vibrant Mode sits on top of existing APIs and databases — no forks, no core changes — adding the polish and usability that makes daily use a pleasure.
Non-invasive
We connect through existing APIs and databases. Your original software stays untouched and fully functional.
Zero dependencies
Single-file frontends with no build steps, no frameworks, no npm install. Just copy and go.
Designed for daily use
Dark themes, responsive layouts, rich metadata, and real-time feedback — interfaces you actually want to look at.
Vibrant Mode for moOde Radio
A modern station library and player interface for moOde Audio Player. Browse, filter, and play internet radio with rich metadata, album art, and real-time stream info.
Rich Now Playing
Album art from iTunes, Radio Paradise, and more. Live stream badges show real-time bitrate, sample rate, and bit depth straight from MPD.
Station Health Check
Test all your stations with one click. Dead streams get flagged with visual badges so you can clean up your library.
Favorites Management
Star any station to add it to your Favorites. Toggle between your curated list and the full station library instantly.
Full Station Editor
Edit all 13 metadata fields, add new stations, delete old ones, and manage your collection with ease.
Sleep Timer
Set a countdown and drift off. The header badge shows time remaining, and playback stops automatically when it hits zero.
Smart Filtering
Filter by genre with multi-select OR logic, search by name, and switch between card and list views to find the right station fast.

More interfaces coming
Vibrant Mode for moOde is just the beginning. We're exploring modern frontends for other platforms with powerful backends and room for better UX.
Have a favorite open-source tool with a dated interface? We'd love to hear about it.
The pattern is the same — find an exposed API, build a beautiful frontend, ship it as a drop-in upgrade.
Built in the open,
built for the community
Every Vibrant Mode project is free and open source. Contributions, ideas, and feedback are always welcome.
