Csound is a sound and music computing system which was originally developed by Barry Vercoe in 1985 at MIT Media Lab. Since the 90s, it has been developed by a group of core developers. A wider community of volunteers contribute examples, documentation, articles, and takes part in the Csound development with bug reports, feature requests and discussions with the core development team.
Although Csound has a strong tradition as a tool for composing electro-acoustic pieces, it is used by composers and musicians for any kind of music that can be made with the help of the computer. Csound has traditionally been used in a non-interactive score driven context, but nowadays it is mostly used in in a real-time context. Csound can run on a host of different platforms including all major operating systems as well as Android and iOS. Csound can also be called through other programming languages such as Python, Lua, C/C++, Java, etc.
One of the main principles in Csound development is to guarantee backwards compatibility. You can still render a Csound source file from 1986 on the latest Csound release, and you should be able to render a file written today with the latest Csound in 2036.

That's really not true. Qt as of Qt 6 still supports using native X11 drawing commands and that covers a lot of apps. Tkinter too (and many technical apps which are exactly the ones likely to be used over the wire). Just last week I was debugging remotely an art installation which uses my software, https://ossia.io and was running on a Pi 5, I compared X11 and VNC and X11 was really much more useable even over the... - Source: Hacker News / about 18 hours ago
Maaybe you'd find https://ossia.io interesting :D. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
Https://ossia.io uses widgets and qgraphicsscene for the main UI rendering and Qt rhi for the GPU pipeline, and it's performing well enough for our use-cases - I was working on it on a 1080p screen on a Pi4 recently and it certainly felt much much faster and responsive than chrome on the same hardware. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
I use it for live c++ recompilation in https://ossia.io - all the code is in there. Https://github.com/ossia/score/tree/master/src/plugins/score-plugin-jit/JitCpp. Source: 5 months ago
Https://ossia.io uses verdigris pretty much exclusively. Worse syntax but lots of advantages compared to moc. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
