What does HackerNews think of JUCE?
JUCE is an open-source cross-platform C++ application framework for desktop and mobile applications, including VST, VST3, AU, AUv3, RTAS and AAX audio plug-ins.
JUCE is the most well established framework for developing cross-platform audio applications. It is used by some of the world’s leading tech companies as well as educational institutions, start-ups, and bedroom hobbyists.
We are looking for an experienced and self-driven C++ developer to join the three other JUCE team members, where you will be responsible for planning and introducing new features, keeping pace with underlying changes in operating systems and platforms, and supporting and empowering the community of developers creating JUCE-based software. This role has a very wide remit, across multiple different operating systems, audio plug-in formats and hosts, from low level operations on bits and bytes up to software packaging and distribution, with plenty of scope for personal development.
Our small team and open source codebase enables impactful contributions with a high degree of ownership, where you will deploying code changes to the framework in public and will be responsible for functionality many other software developers will rely upon.
The JUCE team operates the annual Audio Developer Conference, https://audio.dev/, and are a regular presence at other software developer events.

Also, I went to poke around the source code:
https://github.com/helio-fm/helio-workstation
It looks to be a really well written and maintained C++ project. It's built on top of the JUCE framework [0]. Builds super easy on Linux with minimal dependencies. The coding style is C#-like - very easy to read.
I can't say anything about the main functionality though, as I have zero understanding about music composition.

The code base is quite simple and readable, because it consists of several self-contained modules, many of which are just wrappers around existing libraries.
For a "professional" code base, you could have a look at JUCE, which is also very modular: https://github.com/juce-framework/JUCE
Both projects are written in "modern C++" (C++11 and above).
