A small Last.Fm search client written in python able to executed in terminal; Functions as a way for me to practice Python as beginner

Due to my previous git repo, https://github.com/lule345/lastfm-python/, somehow getting bugged by VS code not handling git correctly, I had to remake the repo and so this is why this is here. You can still find the original repo with the link before.

Demonstration video can be found at: https://youtu.be/qNmmetEVYJQ

Usage:

1. pipx install PIP-lastfm-python-lule345
2. lastfmPython
3. Configure the local config.json file to include API key (see: https://www.last.fm/api/account/create; you will require a last.fm account)
4. The JSON file will look like: {"api_key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"}; Upon getting your API key from last.fm, insert your key in the field there, save, and continue to step 5.
5. lastfmPython --h
