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.
- Getting started - Solution
- Oscillation - Solution
- Musical keyboard - Solution
- Audio sampling - Solution
- Music sequencing - Solution
- Audio worklets - Solution
- Dataflow programming
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
See notthetup/awesome-webaudio for a collection of Web Audio related resources.
The kata format has been adapted from red-gate/web-kata. Special thanks go to Tero Parviainen for helping to ideate the content.
