miniaudio
A lightweight audio library covering device I/O, decoding, resource management, mixing, spatialization, node graphs, and common formats at either engine or low-level backend scope.
Why use it
Independent developers can cover desktop, mobile, and web audio with minimal dependencies while centralizing decoding, streaming, and device differences in an auditable codebase.
Where it fits
Find engines, frameworks, code libraries, version control, and production automation.
What to check
It is not a complete interactive-audio authoring suite; complex music states, visual mixing, and platform certification need higher layers, and upgrades should be checked for API or ABI changes.
