Thanks for summarizing this in easy to follow, simple steps Tony!

A couple weeks ago I tried following the same tutorial from novatorem, but I'm running into an issue at the very end where it won't seem to properly display the album art with the title and artist, plus the waveform, in my markdown. I wonder if something is wrong with the ![Spotify] feature? It looks like it still works on yours, but I followed a YouTube tutorial from codeSTACKr also using novatorem's method, and their markdown is also not working. Same issue, just shows the title with a default image, no album art, song info or waveform.

Any ideas?

Hey Kendall thanks for stopping by + the kind comment. Since novatorem's master where we're both forking from seems largely unchanged, my guess would be a change in github's profile readme features, perhaps correctly so the ![Spotify].

Tony Kagete Sorry, did you mean to end that second sentence there? I'm not sure what you mean. I noticed yours is still working with the ![Spotify] in the markdown. Is there something you did to keep it from deprecating if that's the case?
