The cycling74 Max homepage describes it as: "A Playground for Invention.

Max is an infinitely flexible space to create your own interactive software."

My experience with Max is very limited, but the homepage sub topic, "Extending Max" has sub-headers for "Javascript, Node JS, C/C++, Gen, GLSL Sliders, and Java."

could the Max application operate as a (web)  browser?

Obviously it can, according to said homepage, but 

eg: If it can host Javascript and Java, can it utilise JS libraries like jQuery?

and what about things like MySQL, PHP, CSS, HTML? SoundCloud? and so much more.

I am both amazed and terrified by all this and would welcome any response/comment.

Has anyone figured out if it is possible to add a custom style sheet to the browser interface of a Raspberry Pi running RNBO?

I'd like to make a few changes to be able to see more parameters at one glance without scrolling.

Currently I do it by manipulating the CSS styles inside the browser after loading the page. But that means re-doing it after every reload, so not really ideal even though it's just two classes I have do modify.

Here is an example of what I'd like to achieve:

add-custom-css-for-rnbooscquery-runner-browser-interface

the code for the browser interface is actually available on GitHub - https://github.com/Cycling74/rnbo-runner-panel 

If you need to customize it, want to tailor it to your needs or are just looking for an example on how to interact with the WebSocket endpoint that is exposed by the OSCQueryRunner from a browser context the repo is probably a good starting point.

There are probably some improvements and features we could add to the browser interface. Please feel free to contribute by creating issues or pull requests on GitHub if some of the things you have in mind might be valuable for a more general use-case.

Thanks

Thanks Florian,
I took a quick look. As I haven't worked with next.js yet it would take a little while to dive into the code. Currently I am in the middle of the production, so it'll be probably not before  the end of the year.
What I have in mind to add maybe a dropdown menu, that allows to select different layouts, 1 column, 2 columns 3 columns....

Probably an easy addition to someone familiar with code. I just added to the wrapper element of the parameters:

ParameterList__ParamWrapper-sc-jgotn6-0 {
   display: flex; 
   flex-flow: row wrap;
}


and to the parameter class: 

parameter {
   max-width: 30%;
}

I’m curious how different people have learned Max and what they have learned along the way…

What is it you wish you’d known before you went down that inevitable rabbit hole while patching?

What is it you wish you knew right now but  don’t know how to get there? 

Would you prefer more video tutorials? Tutorial patches? Books? E-books with embedded media?  What media allows you to learn the most efficient? 

For me, my rabbit holes have always been early abstractions. When I see something that looks like I might need it again I make an abstraction. And because I can’t help myself, I also make a help file… I have hundreds of abstractions doing everything you can think of. 

Right now, I wish I knew GEN and RNBO better but because I have no project where they are crucial, I just don’t have the time to allocate to learning them properly. 

I’ve used Max for over 2 decades now, have taught it at university, privately, used it for pieces, analysis, audio generation, video generation, and everything in between. 

Hello dear Maxers,

Hi, just wonderin' if we could get the team to look at the confusing appearance of tags here:

Screenshot 2023-08-26 at 9.21.44 AM.png

^the above screencap shows that on some browsers, creating a topic and attempting to choose tags might cause a misalignment, and people attempting to choose 'bugs/issues' can easily choose 'resolved', 'beginner' can easily be confused with 'advanced', etc.

@Cycling74 -> seems it might just be a matter of fixing frames/alignment somehow(i have no idea what i'm talking about with web-design, do they still use 'frames'? 

 oops, i think not, i have no clue...ok then 🫠)... just wanted to bring it to your attention.

in case it helps(or else helps the community be aware of this weirdness: you can also go back and edit the tags on your original post if you see it happen; hit the 'edit topic' button if you created the thread)

Haha. Web design has a whoooole lot of belt and suspenders:)
