Create an MP3 Music Player in Python

                              Create an MP3 Music Player in Python

                  Python MP3 Music Player

We will create an mp3 music player in which we can play the song, pause it, resume it, and navigate from the current song to the next song as well as previous songs.

We will be using Python and its libraries. The first library that we will be using is Tkinter which is a widely used GUI library offered by python, we do not have to install it separately, as it comes with python itself.

Next, we will be using the mixer module of a very famous python library called Pygame.

Pygame is basically used to create video games, it includes computer graphics and sound libraries. Mixer is one such sound library. Then, we will use the os library of python to interact with the Operating system.

        Project Prerequisites

To work on python mp3 player basic understanding of python programming language, tkinter, and mixer module of pygame would be helpful.

A basic understanding of Tkinter widgets would also be required, but don’t worry as we will be explaining every line of code as we go developing this mp3 player project.

Unlike the Tkinter library, we are required to install the Pygame library.

Please run following command in your command prompt or terminal to install pygame.

                        pip install pygame

       Steps to develop this project

1.Import important libraries

2.Create the project layout

3.Define play, pause, and other music player functions
