+# Telugu Radio TUI
+
+A terminal UI for browsing and playing Telugu online radio stations from [OnlineRadioFM](https://onlineradiofm.in/language/telugu).
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.11+
+- [mpv](https://mpv.io/) — playback
+- [socat](https://sourceforge.net/projects/socat/) — mpv IPC
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+cd ~/code/radio_tui
+chmod +x radio-tui
+./radio-tui
+```
+
+The launcher creates a local `.venv` and installs dependencies on first run.
+
+Or manually:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+python -m radio_tui
+```
+

+| `m` | Mute |
+| `s` | Stop |
