AudioPlatform

This is a framework for learning/teaching digital audio programming.

---

Goals:

• Few dependencies
• Conceptually simple implementations, when possible
• Permissive licenses
• Portable; It should build and run on:
  • Linux
  • macOS
  • (TBD) Windows
  • (TBD) The browser via Emscripten

Status:

Currently GLWF3 is the only library dependency. RtAudio and others build along with user code.

Getting Started

Media (e.g., .wav and .png files) are held using Git Large File Storage, so you'll need to install git-lfs on your system.

Prepare your development environment:

• Linux

  On apt-based systems, you'll need libglfw3-dev and libasound2-dev. The build-essential package will install everything you need to compile and link.

• macOS

  First, install Xcode with xcode-select --install on the terminal. Then, install Homebrew. Finally, install the glfw library with brew install glfw.

• Windows (TDB)

  TDB: This will probably use MinGW, but maybe choco, vcbuildtools, and vcpkg.

Building examples

To build and run an example, use the run script. For instance, ./run example/simple.cpp will build and run the example example/simple.cpp

This works for any .cpp files in some subfolder of this repo, so if you make a folder foo and a file foo/bar.cpp, you should be able to build and run with ./run foo/bar.cpp.
