npm i guitar-chords-viewer
A simple collection of all main-chords for guitarists. You can see chords…
- as notes on a scale
- as tab on a sterilized guitar neck.
and you can play chords
- Stacked or spread chord-notes:
The frequenz of the notes is calculated based on a settable chamber note. Default is set to 440 Hz.
Left-handed view
You can also change/mirror the view of the guitar-neck. Normally the views are made for right-handed guitars. Changing the view might be more easy for left-handed learners to transport the image to the guitar neck.
- L/R view for left-handed users.
- notes, fingerings, strings, tuning are mirrored.
