A practical guide to generating sounds programmatically in the browser using the Web Audio API. Covers creating a basic sine wave beep, eliminating the clicking artifact when stopping audio using exponential gain ramping, adding ringing/decay effects by adjusting fade-out timing, exploring different oscillator types (sine, square, sawtooth, triangle), and mapping musical note names to their Hz frequencies for playing actual notes.
