I know that this wasn't the point of the article, but please don't ever do this. > Why do web applications have no sound? Why can't we make boring internal tools come to life with sound, in the same way that UI on a Nintendo Switch pops and clicks and whistles?

Sound can work well on the web[1], as long as it isn't over the top, there's no reason it couldn't be used more. I've been considering adding some sounds[2] to the project I'm working on. 1: https://www.joshwcomeau.com/react/announcing-use-sound-react-hook/ https://www.joshwcomeau.com/react/announcing-use-sound-react... 2: https://github.com/snd-lib/snd-lib https://github.com/snd-lib/snd-lib

  If you add sounds to anything on the web, please, please, make a top-level, easily identifiable mute button.

    And mute the sound by default!
