Hi all — this might be of interest to a limited number on this list, but
it really impressed me.
You will need:
* USB MIDI hardware (though you can noodle on the keyboard much less
impressively)
* a recent Chrome build (/possibly/ Chromium too; if you can enable
Web MIDI under chrome://flags, it might work)
Now go here:

If you've got your MIDI set up, you've got a decent-ish emulation of a
Juno 106. In JavaScript. Talking to your MIDI hardware with minimal
latency.
I'm linking this here as my previous experience with MIDI on Linux was
highly dispiriting. If I could even get it to work, there was usually a
¼s or more delay between pressing a key and getting a note. This just
works. I'm impressed.
cheers,
Stewart
