Tender Surrender

Did you know web browsers can now make music? Or at least sound. By using Web Audio API, you can synthesize, add effects, modulate, split, merge - whatever you can imagine to process audio: they are available on many browsers. There's also MIDI support. Chrome has Web MIDI implementation behind a flag so you can hook up your synthesizer and send or receive MIDI signals with it.

This hackathon, which aims to let participants enjoy sound using browser-based APIs like the Web Audio API and Web MIDI API, is now in its third year. This year's event was packed with great content and amazing ideas, but in this post I'd like to briefly summarize the content.

While practicing writing tests, we've updated the version, so we'd like to introduce it to you. We've released a new version of the Chrome Extension: MarkdownPastr, which allows you to paste rich text copied to the clipboard as Markdown.

Even after searching, I couldn't find much information in Japanese, so I'm leaving a note here.
