so far, i've done my audio dsp in JavaScript and AssemblyScript. people on the internet tell me it is not OK to use JavaScript, so I will stop now. I will do my audio coding in C from now on.
jokes aside, here's a very simple c program:
// bytebeat.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int t = 0;
while(1) {
putchar(t&t>>8);
t++;
}
}
Goes on to use sox to interpret a series of C programs as sound

A followup post describes how to compile similar programs to WASM and run them in the browser
