```

- [AURA Web](#aura-web) - Your radio front-end with all the batteries included.
- [AURA Playout](#aura-playout) - Fully automated radio broadcast, including fallback handling.
- [AURA Recorder](#aura-recorder) - A simple but precise block recorder.

AURA adopts a modular approach, affording you the flexibility to mix and match components of the
distribution with your current infrastructure. For optimal performance, we recommend installing all
of these packages simultaneously to ensure the best user experience.

All components offer OpenAPI 3 REST interfaces, facilitating seamless integration with other
systems. You can review the API specifications at [api.aura.radio](https://api.aura.radio).
