This API is best for developers looking to incorporate sound into their applications.

Developers should use this API to incorporate sounds into their applications because it is a open source alternative to buying and downloading royalty-free sounds. Freesound is a great option for web & mobile applications since it's easy to access sounds with detailed descriptions, search and filter capabilities. Additionally, OAuth2 authentication and authorization provides secure usage for developers. Finally, developers can also benefit from the Open Source hosting for sounds, allowing them to edit and remix the sounds as needed.
