Welcome to Cagire
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. Cagire is open-source (AGPL-3.0 licensed) and available on GitHub : https://github.com/BuboBubo/cagire. This help view will teach you everything you need to know to start using Cagire and and to live code with it.
