Open-source creative coding framework for distributed applications based on Web technologies.
Primarily focused on music, soundworks aims at supporting rapid development of real-time distributed applications using JavaScript. It provides abstractions to hide the complexity of the network and to foster very rapid-prototyping and trial-and-error workflows that are typical in artistic practices.

The best and most simple way to start using soundworks is to use the @soundworks/create wizard.
npx @soundworks/create@latest
See https://soundworks.dev/tutorials/getting-started.html for more information on the wizard and how to start using soundworks.
Basic TypeScript support will be proposed in a (hopefully) near future.
However, for maintenance reasons, we aim at following the TC39 and W3C specifications as close as possible. Therefore, we will wait for the https://github.com/tc39/proposal-type-annotations proposal to reach stage 3 to update the source code in a more integrated manner.
Note that the @soundworks/core package is automatically installed when creating an application using the @soundworks/create wizard, so most of the time you should not have to install this package manually. See https://soundworks.dev/guides/getting-started.html for more information on the soundworks wizard.
npm install @soundworks/core
On windows machine, tests may fail when run in node.js command line, due to openssl not being found. This is fixed when run with git command line.
