Field notes
YUP divides its framework into modules, including graphics/RHI/shading, GUI, DSP/JIT, audio graphs, plugin wrappers, Python bindings, and AI/MCP clients; the CMake API is described as pulling in transitive dependencies. The live YDSP Synth Lab runs in a browser: visitors can play via computer keyboard or MIDI controller, edit a patch, and hear it recompile. The roadmap is planned publicly on GitHub Discussions.
