The screenshot shows a software called "WebSerial Audio Studio". I couldn't find it, only https://serial-studio.com/ which also looks great (and has an open source edition). Does anyone know if it is the same? Looks pretty handy. Microchip had something not so sophisticated years ago.

Yes, that brings back the memory of working through books by Andre LaMothe and implementing little games in DOS with C and a little bit of Assembler. I believe there was a very primitive graphics library included in Borland C, but it was not that useful for this task.

The OOPSLA paper is more interesting: https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3622818

Abstract: Rhombus is a new language that is built on Racket. It offers the same kind of language extensibility as Racket itself, but using conventional (infix) notation. Although Rhombus is far from the first language to support Lisp-style macros without Lisp-style parentheses, Rhombus offers a novel synthesis of macro technology that is practical and expressive. A key element is the use of multiple binding spaces for context-specific sublanguages. For example, expressions and pattern-matching forms can use the same operators with different meanings and without creating conflicts. Context-sensitive bindings, in turn, facilitate a language design that reduces the notational distance between the core language and macro facilities. For example, repetitions can be defined and used in binding and expression contexts generally, which enables a smoother transition from programming to metaprogramming. Finally, since handling static information (such as types) is also a necessary part of growing macros beyond Lisp, Rhombus includes support in its expansion protocol for communicating static information among bindings and expressions. The Rhombus implementation demonstrates that all of these pieces can work together in a coherent and user-friendly language.

As there are several available, is there one in particular that you would suggest for this use case?
