I'm working on a new design for a site I run just for fun.

It's a simple site for streaming local radios from my city, Mendoza (Argentina): https://www.radiosdemendoza.com.ar

It was built with WordPress, and the new theme is using Tailwind and AlpineJS. I hadn’t used AlpineJS before, so this project was a great way to experiment with it.

I don't have any monetization on it, and I'm not sure if I'll pursue that for this site.

Next up, I plan to build a Chrome extension. I have limited experience with that, so it should be a fun challenge.

Maybe you can try https://wxt.dev/ or plasmo for the extensions

Do you know if there's a way to get info about programming (show names and schedule) from the streams?

Yes, I've been considering both options! WXT seems to fit my use case better at the moment, so I might give it a try.

As for stream names, I’ve looked into it as well, but from the limited research I’ve done, it seems like only paid services are available.

I doubt there's a way to get the radios' programming since these are mostly small radios with very basic websites and online presence. Best I can get is an MP3/AAC stream and that's about it.
