Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

jmon-algo

v0.1.0

Published

Programming interface to composse music with JMON (JSON Music Object Notation) objects: format conversion, algorithmic composition, and music visualization.

Readme

jmon-algo

jmon-algo (jam on studio) is the JavaScript version of the JMON (JSON Music Object Notation) studio for algorithmic music composition (djalgojs), format conversion (jmon-format) and music visualization (viz). This version has been converted from TypeScript to pure JavaScript for easier management and broader compatibility.

Getting started

The recommanded way of starting jamming is heading to Observable, a beautiful platform to interact with JavaScript code. Sign up, sign in, create a new notebook, add a JavaScript cell and paste jm = require("jmon-algo@latest"). The jm object will include everything you need to compose jmon files, play them, show the score and export them to midi files, abc scores, Tone.js generators, etc. Since you'll probably need some guidance, read the free online, interactive book at observablehq.com/collection/@essi/jmon-algo.

Installation

If you are used to coding with npm packages locally, you can install jmon-algo with

npm install jmon-algo

Features

Algorithmic Composition

  • Music theory: Scales, progressions, harmony, rhythm
  • Minimalism: Process-based composition techniques
  • Generative algorithms: no deep learning, just you, your imagination and math: random walks, Fractals, cellular automata, genetic algorithms, Gaussian processes

JMON Format Conversion

  • Tone: Core format validation and Tone.js integration
  • ABC notation: Convert JMON to ABC notation
  • MIDI: MIDI file conversion utilities
  • Display: Score visualization and playback functions
  • SuperCollider: JMON format to SuperCollider code

Analysis & Utilities

  • Musical analysis tools (usefull for genetic algorithms)
  • Format conversion utilities
  • Mathematical utilities for music
