Guitar Looper in the browser

Hei Hei! I wanted to share my recent project, an open source guitar looper pedal. https://github.com/alexjilkin/loop It enables you to record a loop and play along, while also allowing you to use an Amp with distortion, delay and an lowpass filter. It works currently only on Chrome and MacOS, as Windows introduces some delay to it. I am open to any feedback, I enjoy using it and my motivation was being able to play along with my self easier then using a looper pedal.
