I recently found out about livecoding where someone will program something on the fly to make music. Apparently there are special languages and libraries for this sort of thing. So I'd like to know if anyone has any experience with it and if they have any languages, libraries or tools to suggest.

Live coding is often used to create sound and image based digital media, as well as light systems, improvised dance and poetry, though is particularly prevalent in computer music usually as improvisation, although it could be combined with algorithmic composition.
Some artists have eschewed traditional acoustic and electronic instruments to compose with computer code. Colloquially, this is called “live coding” — a D.J. takes the stage with a laptop, opens up a coding interface and constructs melodies in real time.
Sonic Pi is available free for Windows, macOS, and Raspberry Pi.
Overview. Live coding involves writing a computer program in real time in front of a class, not merely to convey a correct, polished solution, but to reveal the programming process and demonstrate “programming as students would program” (Guzdial & Stephens-Martinez, 2020).
