🎈 ⦁ What is it?

The idea of maenDisease/Float (a compact, hover-driven Discord) brought to Spotify.

• Your Library rests as a thin strip of covers and slides open on hover, pushing the page right.
• The right sidebar (Now Playing view, Queue, Friend Activity) rests as a strip and slides open on hover, pushing everything left. The page keeps its width and just moves.
• The secondary top-bar buttons only show while you hover the bar.
• Per-button switches for the player bar (lyrics, queue, connect, volume, miniplayer).
• Width presets at 1100 / 900 / 820 px.

❔ ⦁ What do you need to use it?

• Spotify.
• Spicetify.

(IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT, GO GET IT FIRST, DUH)

It's an extension, not a theme, so it works with any Spicetify theme (or none).

✅ ⦁ How to use it?

Copy float.js into your Spicetify extensions folder, enable it and apply:

cp float.js ~/.config/spicetify/Extensions/
spicetify config extensions float.js
spicetify apply

On Windows the extensions folder is %appdata%\spicetify\Extensions.

Keep Your Library collapsed:

Leave Your Library in Spotify's collapsed (icons only) mode. Float opens it on hover, that's the whole point, duh!

🔧 ⦁ Customizing

The knobs sit in the :root block at the top of the CSS inside float.js:

--float-sidebar-width (72): Library strip width (unitless px), 0 hides it
--sidebar-hover-width (280px): Library width when open
--slide-window-on-hover (1): 1 the page slides right, 0 the library covers it
--float-members-width (72px): Right strip width, 0 hides it
--members-hover-width (320px): Right sidebar width when open (Spotify's minimum is 280px)
--slide-window-on-members-hover (1): 1 everything slides left, 0 the sidebar covers the page
--sidebar-hover-delay / --members-hover-delay (0s): How long to rest on a strip before it opens
--sidebar-transition-duration / --members-transition-duration (0.4s): Slide speed
--toolbar-visibility (flex): none hides What's New / Friend Activity until the bar is hovered
--playbar-lyrics / -queue / -connect / -volume / -miniplayer (flex): Player bar buttons

Edit the file, then apply again:

spicetify apply

⚠️ ⦁ Limits

Spotify never lays out narrower than 800 px or shorter than 600 px: a smaller window is just cropped. So the presets live between 800 and 1920 px; anything below 800 can't fire. Blame Spotify, not me.
