One-Click Windows Setup

The installer:
- Installs the BetterDiscord plugin when BetterDiscord is detected.
- Installs the source userplugin for Vencord, Equicord, and Dorian-style clients.
- Builds the source client with
pnpm build. - Runs
pnpm injectwhen that client exposes an inject script.
How It Works
DiscordLyrics reads your Spotify activity from Discord, matches the current track through LRCLIB, and updates your custom status when the active lyric line changes.
Fallback format:
textSong - Artist
Troubleshooting
If lyrics do not appear right away, check these first:
- Spotify must be connected to Discord and visible as your activity.
- The track title and artist should match the public LRCLIB listing.
- Reload Discord after enabling or updating the plugin.
- Wait a few seconds after changing songs so the lyric lookup can refresh.
- For source clients, rebuild and inject after every plugin update.
