[alextone]

This is a feature request, asking if Non Session Management support can be added in DISTRHO.

I was hoping the standalones would be more of developer test tools, rather than being for users.

It is not much work to add it, the only "big" thing is finding a nice way to save and load state.
So far it has been up to the hosts to do it.

To anyone reading this, is there a tiny library we can use for storing config and other things?
(I guess json would be the most useful)

a tiny library we can use for storing config and other things

how about serd?

serd is too niche, not just the library but the resulting files. most people wouldnt know how to edit them if needed.

https://github.com/akheron/jansson is likely one of the best to use.
But it is also not as tiny as I would hope for

cJSON presents itself as an ultralightweight library released under MIT license. It is used by my Windows webview to parse messages form JavaScript. It is quite straightforward, have a look here. Its README says it can also write JSON though never tried that feature.
