Just like the title, I want to use alda in my python script using this library. Is there any portable version of alda that can let me run it in my python script to run on any computer even don't have alda installed?

Hi @GhostShadow0316 , thanks for the question!

In general, Alda libraries for various programming languages will depend on having Alda installed on your system, as this is the approach that I encourage. There is not (yet?) any portable version of Alda available that can be used without installing the alda and alda-player binaries.

I am, however, interested in making Alda run in the browser, and I've been working on that a little bit off and on. I'm not sure if that's close to what you have in mind, but I thought I'd mention it.
