Organizations of Importance

Composuary wouldn't be possible without a large number of free resources. As such, I thought it was important to highlight what tools are used for building and maintaining this annual event to help promote them.

Artists

The following artists were contracted to create visual assets for Composuary

Maggie Markley

Freddy Bendekgie

Software

MuseScore

MuseScore is free and open source composing software that is available on all major operating systems and is what the author learned to write music in. The social media site that's associated also provides free hosting for the pieces that are being written with this software.

Audacity

Audacity is free and open source audio software that is used to capture sounds internal to development computers and do simple audio splicing for building prompts.

Krita

Krita is free and open source image editing software that allows the PDF outputs from MuseScore to be easily cut up for building out the prompts.

Discord

All of the communication and community organizing happens through Discord and is built on a freemium model that allows this event to use their tools without having to spend money.

mdBook

mdBook is free and open source software that acts as the website template generator. mdBook allows the author to write out the entire website in plain text (markdown format) and have it converted to the HTML/CSS application you see.

When Is Good

When is Good is a freemium website that allows for easy scheduling of events. No account is required and their simple interface has been extremely helpful in planning out when events are happening.
