The web UI is a React app served from the GraphQL HTTP listener. Open http://localhost:6062 once rockboxd is running.
Rockbox web UI

Features

  • Browse artists, albums and tracks from the tag database
  • Browse the filesystem under music_dir
  • Search powered by Typesense (instant results as you type)
  • Manage the live playback queue and saved playlists
  • Reorder, shuffle, repeat
  • Like / unlike tracks and albums
  • Pick the active output device (Chromecast, AirPlay, Snapcast TCP, …)
  • Real-time “now playing” updates over a GraphQL subscription

Building from source

The web UI ships pre-built with the rockboxd binary, but you can rebuild it locally:
cd webui/rockbox
deno install
deno run build
The result lands in webui/rockbox/build/ and is embedded into rockboxd at link time.

Customising the bind address

graphql_host = "0.0.0.0"   # default 0.0.0.0
graphql_port = 6062        # default 6062
Restart rockboxd, then reach the UI at http://<host>:<port>.
