soundworkssoundworks
Open-source creative coding framework for distributed applications based on Web technologies.
Primarily focused on music, soundworks aims at supporting rapid development of real-time distributed applications using JavaScript. It provides abstractions to hide the complexity of the network and to foster very rapid-prototyping and trial-and-error workflows that are typical in artistic practices.
Main Features
- Support for both browser and Node.js clients
- Real-time communications through WebSockets
- Distributed state management
- Plugin system to extend core functionalities
(clock synchronization, runtime distributed scripting, etc.)
Projects & Demos

What it is not
- Not a framework to develop regular websites, although its probably feasible to do so if you are adventurous
- Not a ready to use application, you will have to code.
However, we maintain a set of quite generic applications that could fit your use-case: CoMo - Elements, Playground or Koryphaios - Probably a lot of other things (e.g. teapot, ...)
