Problem Encountered:

The use of pub.dev/spotify_sdk requires the user to have the Spotify app installed on their device.

Proposed Approach:

Since we only need to fetch the playlist from a specific genre, we can:

Use Spotify Web API, instead of spotify_sdk
Authenticate via OAuth2 using flutter_web_auth
Use http package to send HTTP requests to the Spotify Web API

Advantage:

Dependency on presence of Spotify app removed

Please let me know your thoughts :thought_balloon:
