Do you think it (in combination with React, WASM) could replace something like the Juce framework that most music apps use? I'm a beatmaker myself and would like to get into music apps but found the Juce stuff and C++ always scary.

Juce is more common for music creation apps right? I believe Overtone is more of a Spotify alternative.

  • Yes, Juce is used to develop DAWs and VST plugins. The way I understand it, LiveStore basically creates a client side loop in the browser comparable to apps you would install and run locally on your device. Having the data (e.g. samples) stored in sqlite within the client side loop would make a huge difference vs. web apps fetching and caching from a backend I assume.
