How does this compare to navidrome?
Doesn't have additional fluff like scrobbing or telling Spotify about every track you listen to get their albumart. (though you might want this, that's fine)
Browsing is by folder structure, not via tags. Again, this is a preference thing, I prefer to browse by folder structure, since just about every player wants to define the 'album artist'/'artist' split differently and some do and don't support 'sort artist' tag.
node.js v. Go+ReactJS (nodejs is mature now and is a single dep, golang is pretty mature but react is moving fast and breaking things)
Really just depends on what features you want.
If you have cover art in the album's folder, navidrome won't check anything else. You can configure where it will check for artist art and cover art: https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/artwork/
