## Help
Audio is a fundemental building block needed by almost every flutter project.
I'm looking to make Sounds the go to project for Flutter Audio with support for each of the Flutter supported platforms.
Sounds is a large and complex project which requires me to maintain multiple hardware platforms and test environments.
I greatly appreciate any contributions to the project which can be as simiple as providing feedback on the api or documentation.
See the [Contributing](#Contributing) section below for details.
### Sponsorship
If you can't help out by directly contributing code maybe you could Sponsor me so I can spend more time improving Sounds.
Sounds is a large commitment and I'm maintaining several other dart related projects so any support would be greatly appreciated.
Key short term goals are:
* Hire a graphics designer to improve the look of the widgets
* Provide support for the web
* Provide support for a wider range of Codecs
* Provide support for streaming
If I can get enough sponsorship I intend hiring a grad to do a chunk of the dirty work so I can focus on some of the larger features such as Web Support.
You can find the purple heart Sponser button at the top of the page.
If you can't afford a coffee then show your support by 'liking' the Sounds project on the [pub.dev](https://pub.dev/packages/sounds) site.
