Roon Controller early access (or "Yet another Web Roon Controller...")

I wanted to announce that I’ve created an early access release for the Roon controller I’ve been working on. Info and download links are on the Gitlab project page: dottydingo / projects / roon / roon-controller · GitLab

In short, this is a centralized service that supports multiple controllers (web browsers) controlling any of the zones in a system. It’s optimized for a 7 or 10 inch touchscreen (RoPiee replacement) but also works on larger displays (I have a browser window open on my laptop). I’ve created native binaries and Docker images for Intel/AMD based linux and Raspberry Pi, download links are on the project page. I can create binaries for Mac (and possibly Windows) if there is any interest.

I’ve been using the controller in my system for over 6 months and it’s been stable. I’m releasing this as early access since it hasn’t been tested outside of my environment, so it’s possible there may be hiccups in another environment.

Happy to answer any questions. Enjoy!

Here are some screenshots to show what the UI looks like:
