Due to the client/server architecture, it is possible for multiple clients to play one sound server.
Although sclang [link to some help file?] is the native language for the server, there are also several client implementations in other programming languages such as

I think if we start talking about server we should mention that this scsynth is not a webserver.
I also added that scsynth has multiple ways to interact with (aka client implementations), emphasizing the "polyglottness" of the SuperCollider ecosystem :)
While we are at it, I'd also like to show some love for supernova :)
Decided to first mention the features, than its origins - hope this is fine w/ everyone.
I am unsure if this isn't too much technical mumbo-jumbo upfront - maybe someone can give some feedback here? Yet we were already talking about servers and interpreted languages which probably only people w/ IT background could relate to.
