What you're building

You're building a Spotify-style 'mood mix' recommender using a hardcoded dataset of songs tagged with moods like happy, chill, hype, and focus. Pick a mood (or even type a sentence describing your day) and it filters and ranks the dataset into an instant playlist. It's simple tag-filtering dressed up as a recommendation engine -- but that's genuinely how a lot of early playlist features worked.
