I've been writing effects in ChucK for several years but have found it difficult to deploy to various platforms of interest.

Is it possible to build an effect written in Glicol into an iOS app or effect (AudioUnit v3? haven't been keeping up)? LV2 plugin to run on MOD devices guitar pedals? VCVRack, which has its own plugin interface? onto a Rasp Pi Zero?

In theory, many of these can all be done with combination of Glicol and other Rust crates (packages) such as:

https://docs.rs/lv2/latest/lv2/

https://docs.rs/vst/latest/vst/

And for Rasp Pi or Bela, Glicol can also help. Although these are all work in progress, I personally really enjoy coding in Rust and the package management is fantastic.

However, VCVRack seems to be a different story; Faust may be a better option:
