# wasm-synth
> A synthesizer built from scratch in C++ and made available on the web
> through WebAssembly.
## Prerequisites
The following tools are required for spinning up a local instance of WASM
SYNTH. Click on the links to view the installation manuals:
- [emscripten](https://emscripten.org/docs/getting_started/downloads.html) (`emcc version 1.39.0`)
- [rollupjs](https://rollupjs.org/guide/en/)
## Docs & Blog post
My previous goal with this project was to learn audio programming. I wrote
about it in [this blog post](https://timdaub.github.io/2020/02/19/wasm-synth/).
Since until then, a [cambrian
explosion](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cambrian_explosion&oldid=952135228)
of webassembly-based browser languages have appeared, I'm currently trying to
make WASM SYNTH work properly again.
## Compatibility
Since it seems that many browsers-vendors are arbitrarily changing APIs these
days, I'm gonna keep track of WASM SYNTHs compatability here.

### How are we currently testing?
- `npm run dev` and open the displayed site in one of the above browsers
- Hit some notes on your keyboard or by pressing with the mouse
- Toggle some UI elements (e.g. toggle off an oscillator)
### I know how to improve/automate testing!
That's great! Any feedback or help is welcome! Please get in touch!
