Building

Prerequisites

• CMake 3.22+
• JUCE 8.0+
• C++20 compiler
• Node.js 18+ (for web UI)

Development Build

# Clone with submodules
git clone --recursive https://github.com/BeatConnect/drive.git
cd drive

# Build web UI
cd web-ui
npm install
npm run dev  # Start dev server for hot reload

# In another terminal - build plugin in dev mode
cmake -B build -DJUCE_PATH=/path/to/JUCE -DDRIVE_DEV_MODE=ON
cmake --build build

Production Build

# Build web UI
cd web-ui
npm ci
npm run build
cd ..

# Build plugin
cmake -B build -DJUCE_PATH=/path/to/JUCE -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build --config Release

Architecture

• C++ (JUCE 8) - Audio processing with oversampled waveshaping and compression
• React/TypeScript - WebView-based UI with ferrofluid visualizer
• JUCE 8 Relay System - Native parameter sync between C++ and web UI
