oh hey it is a little plugin web UI 😊

Did you know you can use C/C++ ternary operators without having to repeat the 1st value?

This:
```
int x = 1;
int y = x ?: 2;
printf("y is %d\n", y);
```

is valid code and prints "y is 1".

Basically makes it work alike the Javascript "let a = b || c" syntax.

Neat 🌅

Anyone recently updated Ardour and got a bit sad that some plugins lost their custom GUI?
I have a solution for that, I hope to make a release for it soon.

Testing and feedback would be very much appreciated if you use any these LV2 plugins:
- Calf
- EQ10Q
- Invada

https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF-Widgets?tab=readme-ov-file#dpf-widgets is looking specially neat today. 📸

Recently added a LVGL widget, as a way to learn the toolkit as I might need it for work.

Trying to make DPF a nice little framework to work with, it has been 12 years already! 😅

Using a web browser view as an audio plugin UI allows for some very weird interactions... 😅

Let's play a little game...

What is working in this picture that shouldn't? Can you tell?

New Cardinal 24.04 release is here

Focuses on updating the base VCV Rack 2.4 and adds quite a few new modules, bringing the module count to 1193.

Changelog and downloads at https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal/releases/tag/24.04

I updated the web version too, so you can try it directly in your browser by visiting https://cardinal.kx.studio/live

Have fun! ☀️

Just posted a personal update (April 2024) on Patreon

TL;DR being "life's tough but finally starting to get less stressful" plus "will start doing opensource project work on thursdays as a schedule/routine going forward"

Thanks everyone for the support so far!

I find it a bit sad/weird that so many people take what an open-source project gives out "as-is", without the notion of the entire thing being modifiable.

Say a project only allows to load 5 potatoes at a time into a pot, we can go there and bump that hardcoded limit into something more suitable to us.
Instead of thinking "welp that project can only load 5 potatoes, not suitable for me then will look for something else"

It becomes no different from proprietary solutions at that point...
