Cagire is a terminal-based step sequencer for live coding music. Each step in a pattern contains a **Forth** script that produces sound and create events. It is made by BuboBubo (Raphaël Maurice Forment): [https://raphaelforment.fr](https://raphaelforment.fr). Cagire is open-source (AGPL-3.0 licensed) and available on GitHub : [https://github.com/BuboBubo/cagire](https://github.com/BuboBubo/cagire).
