Web Audio APIType
About
The Web Audio API is a browser API for processing and generating audio in web applications.
It uses a modular audio graph built from interconnected audio nodes, supports audio from media files, streams, microphones, and oscillators, and provides real-time effects, filters, and 3D positional audio.
Web Storage is a browser API that provides client-side key-value storage for websites, allowing data to be stored directly in a user's web browser.
It stores data as strings associated with a website's origin, offers significantly larger storage capacity than cookies, and consists of the localStorage and sessionStorage interfaces.
