API system for creating our own plugins

It'll be really nice if you add API which allows programming our own plugins.
Not just API, so plugins which can extend apps on platforms.

For example:
* Rework layout;
* Make skins;
* Improve queue functions (like reordering drag-n-drop, etc.)
* Improve lyrics for example;
* Add some extra functions.

So I really need fast buttons "Add to queue", right now it hides in the menu, it's not comfortable.

The main reason doesn't ask you for it, you should focus on the main aim and give users more freedom.

Make Deezer better together! \o/

P.S.: Since I'm a programmer, will start if you add it.

    Hi @Rayman Bercut, that will be hard to implement because of compatibility and licences. We can't let every plugin made by users allow access to Deezer. But there is a way for you to do that. Please check this page

    https://developers.deezer.com/

    You can sign up there and test your plugins/apps with Deezer 🙂

    Hello, Anja.
    The API gives enough stuff to control Deezer, but write a desktop app is a too long process.
    Why don't let users an extension API for apps with some constraints, which protect you and of the recklessness of users?

    The main reason, I want some features, but you can't do it, I pay for the service, I don't want waste time to write my own player for your service, I just want to tune it a bit and be enjoy fully.
    I really can't stand some features, I want to extend playlist control it really uncomfortable, I hate some content, I want to block it out, but you can't satisfy my wishes because you have enough work and the aim. Developing of really good service/program is a big deal, I know it, because I'm a professional programmer. I don't want to develop it, I'm here to just enjoy, but I disagree with some features, it sucks.
    Do it!

    Hi Rayman, sorry for the delayed reply. Working my way through all the ideas again. There are no plans as of yet. But I will leave this topic open and we'll pass it on to the team. Will let you know, should there be an update 🙂
