# What is Topos?
|
||||
|
||||
Topos is an _algorithmic_ sequencer. Topos is also a _live coding_ environment. To sum it up, think: "_making music in real time through code_". Code used as an expressive medium for musical improvisation! Topos uses small algorithms to represent musical sequences and processes.

Topos is deeply inspired by the [Monome Teletype](https://monome.org/). The Teletype is/was an open source hardware module for Eurorack synthesizers. While the Teletype was initially born as an hardware module, Topos aims to be a web-browser based cousin of it! It is a sequencer, a scriptable interface, a companion for algorithmic music-making. Topos wishes to fullfill the same goal as the Teletype, keeping the same spirit alive on the web. It is free, open-source, and made to be shared and used by everyone.

## Alternative documentation source (.pdf)
|
||||
|
||||
You can also find a .pdf version listing the principal commands and functions [here](${pdf}). This document has been generated by Chris Collis. It recaps the main sections of this documentation and can be a good companion while learning Topos.
