built a web app that uses k-means clustering on artist genres (one or multiple) to automatically organize Spotify liked songs into playlists. clean UI.

you might have to click refresh playlists couple of times to get what you want. comments are appreciated. thanks!

I agree, would be useful if adapted to nicer systems for access to music.

Love the idea and design but it doesn't seem to be working atm. Logged in via Spotify and it starts to do the import but then kicks me to the playlist gen almost instantly. Can move the sliders but button click is dead.

Console is showing a 502 error from Spotify API so may be a snag there (https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/tracks?limit=1 502 (Bad Gateway)).

Just tried again and getting same result. Shows the progress bar on import for maybe 2-3s and then kicks to the sliders UI. Console is showing "Error: Failed to fetch track count" now.

I also de-authed the app on Spotify and tried from scratch. May be a rate limit issue or some missing scope needed on the OAuth permissions.

If you need help debugging, hit me up: me@ryanglover.net.

i don't think it's your fault. spotify's entire website is down for me right now, i'm getting "upstream request timeout" and "upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: overflow" just trying to load the homepage. this happens every couple of months.

You got a back trap. When I try to navigate back from the playlist screen it goes to the processing screen, and then repeats the processing request every time I navigate back after that. Maybe a bit gnarly if that is kicking off the spotify fetch each time.

Aside from that, nice, I'm listening to one of the playlists right now.
