I am curious, why not using libpd?

Because it lacks infinite undo, presets, and various other improvements that exist already in Pd-l2ork
and have been used/tested there.

But if you are asking why I'm incrementally porting the tcl/tk gui calls instead of starting fresh with
a new interface on top of libpd, it's because building a new GUI from scratch (and remaining backwards
compatible) is simply too difficult.

So when the porting is done all the GUI code is JS/HTML/SVG/CSS ?

Yes.  That means a patch can be inspected using devtools-- frames per second displayed in realtime, repaint areas
highlighted in realtime, js profiling, DOM point-and-click inspection...

Actually that last one has made several subtle bugs much easier to squash.  Instead of reading reams of socket
data, you can sometimes just spot duplicated or erroneous elements in the DOM.  (Plus turn CSS attrs on and off...)

It's like programming in the 21st century. :)

@Jonathan great! Is there somewhere we can test it? So can you explain how does it work a bit, what did you do exactly. Is it a reimplementation? In which language?

 It's basically two things:
1) removing tcl specific code from the c code, replacing with something that looks similar to pd_vmess
2) porting the gui to nw.js (toolkit that is node.js + chromium + a few OS hooks)

Would be nice indeed! But I think after a bit of fiddling, checking out the list here : https://github.com/sebpiq/WebPd/blob/master/OBJECTLIST.md and debugging, you quickly understand what you can do or not.

Yep, Antoine Rousseau's new work with Pd + OFX and PdDroidParty both let
you do that.

As Sebastian pointed out the best way to ensure that is to use the
audio-clock is the master of all timing, just as it is in native Pd.

Cheers,
