In `@README.md`:
- Line 1: The header image's alt attribute contains a hex string instead of
accessible text; update the <img> tag in README.md (the image element with src
"https://github.com/user-attachments/...") to use a meaningful alt value such as
"Spicetify logo and banner" or another concise description that explains the
image content for screen readers; ensure the new alt text is brief, descriptive,
and replaces the current hex-encoded string in the alt attribute.
- Around line 8-15: The two badge <img> elements shown
(src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Website-spicetify.app-1DB954?style=for-the-badge"
and
src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Docs-Getting%20Started-blue?style=for-the-badge")
lack alt attributes; add meaningful alt text to each image (e.g., alt="Spicetify
website" for the Website badge and alt="Spicetify docs - Getting Started" for
the Docs badge) so screen readers convey the purpose of the linked badges.

Use descriptive alt text for the header image.
The current alt text is a hex-encoded string rather than a meaningful description. Screen reader users would benefit from a descriptive alt text that explains what the image shows (e.g., "Spicetify logo and banner").

Add alt text to badge images for accessibility compliance.
The badge images on lines 10 and 13 are missing alt text. While the links remain functional, this violates WCAG accessibility standards and prevents screen reader users from understanding the link purposes.
