Re: How apply skin with Deezer?
First, you have to realize that there is a difference between what's being claimed in advertising banners and reality. Nothing in life comes without some minimal stress to achieve your goal, including this.
Second, you need to provide more details on what you'd like to achieve. For example, what exactly does Deezer do, what info from its API you'd like to display in a Rainmeter skin, post some typical return of that API that you'd like to parse for stuff to display in your skin (since we are not users of Deezer to know that, and the API link you posted requires logging in and such), and finally to be willing to build up and expand on a simpler test skin we might help you write as a starting point.
So, given enough relevant info on your objective, we can help with showing and explaining to you how to do it, but it will be up to you to develop on that base. Meaning there will be some stress from both us trying to help and you trying to make it complete.
P.S. Why not embed the deezer widget into a Rainmeter skin using the WebView plugin?
...\[SkinFolder]\@Resources\Deezer-Widget.html:
...[SkinFolder]\Deezer-Widget.ini:
It's not that flexible in terms of Rainmeter skin since you need to use the (adjustable, from [Variables]) 10 pixels sides to do your skin stuff like moving or the context menu, but it basically puts your Deezer widget in your skin so in terms of online access is quite flexible (aternatively, it appears that they have a desktop app as well, which of course cannot be adjusted the way a Rainmeter skin can, though that's another story):
If you want the skin to be Rainmeter all around and allow all its goodies while still extracting data from the Deezer API, the level of stress will increase accordingly, since parsing the page source of the API return using some regular expressions would be needed.

Deezer have a desktop app, like Spotfy, but i see a lot skins for this, but not for Deezer...
I'm trying make the app working into a skin, because parameters of Deezer dev site, is very limited, and works only with one playlist or one artist... i'm learning more about Deezer API, but i don't see until now how make something like what is meked to WinAMP, WMP, AIMP, Spotfy, etc...
Thanks Yincognito, you show me a way to learning more about Raimeter and Deezer.

Using the WebNowPlaying plugin and extension, the Deezer web player is fully supported by Rainmeter.DuChene wrote: ↑August 24th, 2023, 11:21 am HI, and thanks,

1-Install WebNowPlayingRedux_2.0.7.rmskin and the WebNowPlaying plugin will be installed automatically:
https://github.com/keifufu/WebNowPlaying-Redux-Rainmeter/releases
2-Install the browser extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webnowplaying-redux/jfakgfcdgpghbbefmdfjkbdlibjgnbli
or
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/webnowplaying-redux/
3-Then load the WebNowPlayingRedux skin or another skin that works with Spotify.
The Deezer desktop application is partially supported, the time and progress bar are not displayed.

Ah, I see, I misunderstood what you needed - you want the skin to act like it would for a supported media player...DuChene wrote: ↑August 24th, 2023, 11:21 am HI, and thanks,

Maybe Xenium's advice is close to what you need then?

Re: How apply skin with Deezer?
If you want to use Deezer desktop app, the solution is to use the WebNowPlaying plugin (without extension).
Only the cover, song name, artist name and buttons will be displayed.
Song duration will not be displayed.
