Preconditions:
- Developing an audio player for a web application.
- All target browsers fully support
audiotag. - No need in sprites, multiple simultaneous sounds etc, just one audio track to be played back at a moment.
- Audio file has to be streamed from the server, not downloaded at once. Therefore not Web Audio API.
Why would I want to utilize howler.js or similar library instead of relying on the built-in audio tag in this scenario?
The only howler.js feature that is intriguing is “Handles edge cases and bugs across environments”.
