+# libsoundio
+
+C library which provides cross-platform audio input and output. The API is
+suitable for real-time software such as digital audio workstations as well
+as consumer software such as music players.
+
+## How It Works
+
+On Linux, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, ALSA, Dummy.
+On OSX, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, CoreAudio, Dummy.
+On Windows, libsoundio tries in order: ASIO, DirectSound, Dummy.
+On BSD, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, OSS, Dummy.
+
+## Roadmap
+
+ * Dummy (all)
+ * PulseAudio (Linux, OSX)
+ * ALSA (Linux)
+ * JACK (Linux, OSX)
+ * CoreAudio (OSX)
+ * DirectSound (Windows)
+ * ASIO (Windows)
+ * OSS (BSD)
