audio-katas - Learn Web Audio

Web Audio is one of the perhaps most overlooked web APIs. Through these katas, you will get a better idea of its capabilities and will be able to go further in your own experiments with the API. Essentially we will be building a modular Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) of our own.

The repository contains katas and solutions. Each kata comes with a brief description for learning aims, background information, and specific tasks to perform. The katas have been designed to form a continuum so make sure to start from the first one and complete them in a successive manner. Each kata is fairly simple and the goal is to teach a concept per kata to avoid overwhelming anyone.

Katas

  1. Getting started - Solution
  2. Oscillation - Solution
  3. Musical keyboard - Solution
  4. Audio sampling - Solution
  5. Music sequencing - Solution
  6. Audio worklets - Solution
  7. Dataflow programming

Prerequisites

To be able to complete the katas, you need the following:

  • Adequate command of JavaScript and TypeScript programming languages
  • Node.js
  • Git - Optional but it is a good idea to version your work so you can see what was done and why
