Procedural UI Sounds for the Web (Website)
Tiks is a 2KB library that uses the Web Audio API to procedurally generate UI sounds, eliminating the need for bulky audio assets.
What: Built by Rexa, Tiks provides an interface to trigger common UI sounds like clicks, toggles, and success states through pure synthesis rather than pre-recorded MP3 or WAV files.
Why it matters: Replacing assets with procedural synthesis significantly reduces bundle sizes and eliminates network latency issues associated with loading sound files.
Takeaway: Use 'npm install @rexa-developer/tiks' to add lightweight, procedural audio to your application's interaction events.
