   AirAP AirPlay server – AirPlay to an iOS Device▲207

   I made AirAP because I wanted a simple way to play sound from my Mac Mini when my speaker broke. But it’s got a ton of other uses too, like testing how audio sounds like on different devices, or repurposing old wired speakers. This was incredibly fun to make - can’t wait for you all to see it!
