React & Web Audio Api: Building a MIDI Interace
summary
Claims a working browser DAW: React components wrap the Web Audio API and the MIDI API to create oscillators, envelopes and an instrument that spawns and kills sound on key press and release. Demonstrates a midi->frequency helper, an onPress/onRelease binding and a tiny MIDI API bridge that strips noise so the keyboard maps cleanly. Shows dynamic game audio (Chrome Racer) and a Victor-style synth, links code at react midia on GitHub.
