The full stack

Every button, every panel.

Mello Connect Web is the browser-based counterpart to the mobile app — same feature parity, reflowed for wider screens and multi-tab desktop use, installable as a PWA.

Real-time

Live Audio Streaming

Persistent mini-player bar fixed to the viewport. Volume slider persisted across sessions, live progress animation, and dynamic Now-Playing detection polling every 30 seconds against the 20-show schedule.

  • Play/pause + expandable volume
