I used React back when it came out once or twice and knew, nah thats not it. It may be good for apps like Facebook. But on the other side, Facebook was slow and buggy af.

I originally planned to make a simple non-functional uploader, then progressively bring it from "it works™" to "high-quality production-grade Uploader with S3 Presigned, Multipart, Accelerated Uploads, along with Auto-Saving and Non-Linear Navigation

Why is every developer trying to make things complicated?

I think it’s time for a truly open Digital Audio Workstation one that’s actually usable, well-designed, functional, and free from logins, cloud dependencies, or mandatory subscriptions. Something you can simply download or access from any platform that supports a browser.

That’s why I really like the idea of building a DAW in the browser, it has huge potential for all kinds of users, especially in education, whether for kids, older people, or just anyone who wants to make music on the go, no matter what device they’re using.

I see a lot of promise in this project and fully support André, who has already contributed to developing great audio tools.

- /info is broken (try reloading it) - js is half a mb - app is polling the db way too fast - app is a small counter but uses react, which is made for big scale social networks - its made in 48h, which is wayyy too long?

What´s the problem with this? I have enough space on my drive. Sure the app is bigger but it´s platform independent and works flawlessly. Native apps crash often, use big os dependent frameworks (you have to install sometimes) and only to have a smaller bundle? I don't get it.

not enough money, not enough people and too short (you know its ending somewhere soon, so you´re not really free. and the participents still seeking for jobs, because the experiment is ending.). so this test is basically just donating a bit of money to random people, not a basic income experiment (for me at least).
