Description

I downloaded Ossia and opened it for the first time and wanted to take a look at some of the examples. Clicking "Examples" on the load screen takes me to this repo, which has a bunch of .score files, which seem to be some kind of json like thing, but what do I do with these? how do I get them to open in Ossia? This should be in the .readme -- I like all the stuff about code of conduct and community contribution and individual responsibility, super nice, but also a handholding 1-2-3 would be great (download the zip and put it somewhere? where?)
