JS Engines for Audio Developers
So many engines, so little time
In this talk, we will explore the potential of JavaScript engines for audio developers, where C++ is traditionally the language of choice. JavaScript can complement C++ effectively for various purposes, including UI development, scripting, and leveraging an ecosystem of libraries and tools. Whilst you'll be bringing your own possible use cases and reasons for investigating integrating JavaScript in to your code base, the intention of this talk is to expose you to a number of the available engines with a goal of allowing you to make an informed decision on the direction you'd like to go in. We'll be discussing the integration process with C++, performance considerations and helpful libraries. In addition to this we'll cover some exciting developments in this space to keep your eye for the future.
