## Overview

Floating Media Bar is a small Windows desktop widget for controlling media without taking focus from a game or full-screen app. Its main workflow is launch, display the floating widget, then use its controls to inspect or change playback. The single C# file contains the application entry point and window implementation; the README documents the major UI and window behaviors. The source excerpt is partial, so documented capability links use the README as evidence rather than implying unseen call structure.

Main entry points: [`FloatingMediaBar.cs`](https://github.com/j7x69/floatingmedia/blob/main/FloatingMediaBar.cs) (Floating widget)
