Sndio is a small, simple audio and midi framework, developed by the openbsd project. it provides a lightweight audio and midi server and a well-documented userspace api to access the server or audio hardware in a uniform way. sndio is designed to work well for both desktop and professional music applications, and supports features found in more complex sound systems such as per-application volume control, software mixing, and network transparency.

this package contains development files and documentation for the sndio userspace libraries.
