The Skjold software on your own Raspberry Pi

Core runs on a Raspberry Pi 4 or 3B/3B+ you already own. Write Skjold OS to the SD card with Skjold Flasher, connect speakers or an amplifier, and you get AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Bluetooth and Lyrion radio. Core has no case, buttons or display. You control it from the app, the browser, Home Assistant or Homey.
