Strudel is served as a static website and all runs in the browser. There used to be a database with user patterns, but that had to be taken down due to abuse.

Migrating the big tidalcycles and strudel.cc projects to the free/open source codeberg.org platform was super easy. We self-hosted forgejo actions but that took no time to set up and the freedom of self-hosting those has all sorts of benefits. A lot of side projects to move but it's a start. [2/2]
