Snapcast is a multiroom client-server audio player, where all clients are time synchronized with the
server to play perfectly synced audio. It's not a standalone player, but an extension that turns your
existing audio player into a Sonos-like multiroom solution.
The server's audio input is a named pipe `/tmp/snapfifo`. All data that is fed into this file will be
send to the connected clients. One of the most generic ways to use Snapcast is in conjunction with the
music player daemon or Mopidy, which can be configured to use a named pipe as audio output.
