The Search that Works

Making Music - w7d3

Today, we started to learn how to use Flux in the design and implementation of simple music app that allowed user to play two octives of a piano, play the notes being pressed and update the display at the time. The Flux pattern of development easied the ability to update and interact with multiple stores.
