'Linamp' is a realistic reproduction of the design of the classic media player 'Winamp'



Rodrigo Mendes, a software engineer living in Mexico, created a music player called Linamp , which uses the same design as the media player Winamp , which was popular from 1997 to 2013 but was discontinued at one point, and then the final version was distributed in 2022.
