I invite all academics and researchers to show their support for this project by properly citing it wherever appropriate in your publications and references.

Citing this Software​

I wrote a paper about WEBMIDI.js and, more specifically, about how it tries to address the usability shortcomings of the Web MIDI API. I invite academics to cite it in their publication whenever appropriate:

Côté, J.-P. (2022). User-Friendly MIDI in the Web Browser. NIME 2022. https://doi.org/10.21428/92fbeb44.388e4764

You can also cite the library itself like so (APA style):
