A small window that makes system calls to the OS level media player, mimicking media keys that are found on some keyboards (play/pause, previous, next, volume).
Java's Robot library cannot mimic these keys, so platform-specific code is required. Currently, only Windows is supported (Win32 API). The MediaSystemCaller interface provides a layer of abstraction, so that Linux and macOS support can be added later.
This widget should prove useful for keyboards without media keys.
The following list is the project architecture, listed from frontend to backend.
