What is an API?
An API (application programming
interface)
can take many aspects and is a term generally used in software
development. In the current case we could summarize it as a set of tools
and specifications defined (here by the Radio4000 team) to help
developers apprehend and use data made available through the API.\
Using this api as a weekend project, we’ve put together a light DJ setup, with which you can mix two Radio4000 together, making transitions between tracks from each radios. It is of course using the data from the new API, and also the new player.
