libossia

https://ossia.io/
libossia is a modern C++ cross-environment distributed object model for creative coding. It allows you to declare the architecture of your innovative coding application's functions as a tree of OSC nodes and parameters. These nodes/parameters can have attributes that communicate many of their properties, such as their values, types, units, and ranges. This OSC tree-based architecture (coined "device" in OSSIA terminology) can then be exposed over the network under several protocols, some of which allow this architecture, and the properties and values of its nodes, to be fully explored and queried. For now, protocols available in the implementations are plain OSC, OSCquery, and, Minuit. More will be part of libossia and will be made available in the future.

libossia offers bindings and implementations for several environments: Pure Data, Max/MSP, Python, C, C++, openFrameworks, Unity3D, QML, Faust, and SuperCollider.

OSSIA Score

https://ossia.io/
A free, open-source, cross-platform intermedia sequencer for precise and flexible scripting of interactive scenarios.
Control and score any OSC-compliant software or hardware: Max/MSP, Pure Data, openFrameworks, processing, and more.
