How do I play tracks?

How play tracks? I want to play tracks on my website not on spotify. My website is acting as a remote control for Spotify.

Hi there, you want to use the Web Playback SDK for that.[0] This repo/library only uses the Web API, which is a separate SDK. All the best!

@simondebbarma if i'm not mistaken, can you not user the Player portion of Web API, which simply has not been updated in this current SDK?

As long as it's on the same device, it shouldn't be a problem, correct?

If you'd like to continue using this SDK, but still want to control the player via WEB API (through this SDK). In one of your services, (or whatever your setup may be). What you can do is use the Client Class created in this SDK to bypass creating a new API request.

import { Client } from 'spotify-sdk'; Client.instance.request('/me/player/play', 'PUT');
I've tested this and it checks out.
