About Tidal Hi-Fi
Tidal Hi-Fi wraps the web version of the Tidal music streaming service in an Electron app. Because it includes Widevine support, it can play Tidal's hi-fi streams on the desktop where a plain browser may not.
It suits Linux users who want Tidal as a separate desktop application rather than a browser tab; packaging for the Arch User Repository is maintained in the repository. A Tidal account is needed to stream music.
