Integrationflok.cc
Real-time collaborative live coding platform integrating textmode.js with Hydra and Strudel.
Live coding
textmode.js currently has two distinct browser-based live coding surfaces:
- flok.cc: a collaborative performance environment where
textmode.jssits alongside Hydra, Strudel, and other live coding tools. - editor.textmode.art: a dedicated single-surface live coding app for procedural ASCII synthesis built around
textmode.jsandtextmode.synth.js.
Both are browser-native, fast to try, and built for playful iteration. ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪
flok.cc
flok.cc is a browser-native collaborative live coding environment. The textmode.js integration exposes a global t Textmodifier instance inside a dedicated panel, which makes it possible to perform textmode visuals alongside Hydra, Strudel, Mercury, and other tools in the same session.
Integration
- Best when you want collaboration, audio-reactive visuals, or cross-tool performance setups.

editor.textmode.art
editor.textmode.art is a dedicated live coding app for procedural ASCII synthesis. It uses textmode.js as the rendering core and exposes textmode.synth.js globally, so the workflow feels closer to Hydra-style source chaining, but with separate channels for glyphs, glyph color, and cell color.
Websiteeditor.textmode.art
Browser-based live coding environment for procedural text generation and ASCII synthesis.
- Best when you want a focused textmode environment with built-in examples, share links, and a stronger editor experience.
