Elementary is a JavaScript framework for writing functional, declarative audio applications with a high performance, native audio engine. Elementary aims to lower the barrier to entry into the audio application space, eliminate the gap between prototyping and production, and bring the functional reactive programming model to DSP.
Watch the intro video for the full story.
$ curl -fsSL https://www.elementary.audio/install.sh | shYou can also install the appropriate binaries for your platform manually, downloading from the releases page on this repository, and unpacking the zip file to a directory of your choosing.
Elementary has essentially two components: the runtime, and the library.
The runtime is a native binary application much like Node.js itself, which is installed via the above curl command.
The library component is what you'll find in this npm package. Explained in detail in the reference section of the documentation,
the Elementary library offers a set of convenience APIs and a growing set of library functions to help you construct your audio signal chain.
Here in the examples/ directory you'll find a small set of example projects aiming to provide a brief introduction to various functionality. Each
example can be invoked on its own:
$ cd examples/
$ npm install
$ elementary 00_HelloSine/And of course you can open these example files, poke around, and edit as you like!
The example code listed in this repository is available under the terms of the ISC License.
The Elementary framework itself is available under one of two different licenses for either personal or commercial use. Please see the Elementary package on npm for details.
