Project Lyricova

Project Lyricova

Project Lyricova is a free and open source suite of web apps for lyrics blogging and music management focused on Vocaloid* contents.

Project Lyricova is currently under the progress of a complete rewrite. The rewrite will consist of 2 parts: a jukebox + music library manager and a lyrics blog. The new tech stack is TypeScript + Node.js + MySQL + Express.js + React + Next.js.

For music manangement, this project relies on VocaDB for its database of Vocaloid songs, and allow manual addition of entries that does not fall under VocaDB’s scope.

For the previous version of Project Lyricova last released in 2015, see the v1 branch.

Etymology

The name Lyricova is a made up word from “lyrics” and “voca” (taken from Vocaloid) or “nova” (taking the meaning of new), which signifies a new way of working with Vocaloid lyrics. This project was previously known as Project Gy which is taken from its name in Chinese, Gē-yǔ (歌語). 歌 means songs, and 語 means to express, putting together, Gē-yǔ is making a sense of expressing oneself through songs and lyrics.
