Welcome to Part 3 of our live coding series, where we dive deeper into developing a MOD/Tracker player using the libopenmpt library with Rust and the Tauri framework! In this episode, we'll focus on creating the foundation for the player interface, utilizing JSX/TSX along with Tailwind CSS and shadcn components.

Join me as we explore the process of designing an intuitive and responsive UI for our player. You'll learn how to approach UI development effectively, implement rapid iterations, and create a seamless user experience for web applications, particularly for Tauri apps.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, this tutorial will provide valuable insights into modern UI design practices and how to leverage powerful tools like React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS.
