WAP: Ideas for a Web Audio Plug-in Standard

on YouTube ↗19m

" summary

A draft API spec plus a small SDK and JavaScript proof-of-concepts define how Web Audio plug-ins declare metadata, are discovered from remote repositories, are instantiated and connected, and expose parameters. The project ships online plugin validators that check metadata and simple behavior, and a validation host: a virtual guitar pedalboard that loads plug-ins from multiple repos, chains them, and receives MIDI — a working proof of concept that remains preliminary and seeks community feedback.
