Cagire: A Live Coding Sequencer Built on Forth and the Doux Audio Engine

I built Cagire, a step sequencer where each step runs a Forth script instead of storing simple notes. Powered by my custom Doux audio engine, it lets you define sounds, trigger samples, and apply effects directly through code. With built-in interactive documentation and support for the Arf language for custom DSP, Cagire turns music creation into an open, experimental live coding experience available on macOS, Linux, and Windows.

"Live coding is an autotelic activity: doing it is its own reward. There are no errors, only fun."
