README
Ride your fretboard and take your guitar skills to the next level! 🤘
> Fretboarder is a web app to visualize the layout of scales and arpeggios on a
> variety of fretboards. It aims to help players get a better grasp on scales,
> and ultimately to become a flexible learning and practicing tool for musicians
> interested in music theory and improvisation.
## Highlights
🎸 **Customize the instrument**
Choose between a variety of instruments (from ukulele to 11-string guitar) and
tunings, set the length of the fretboard, and switch between left- and
right-handed fretting.
🍰 **Overlay scales and arpeggios**
The main feature that distinguishes Fretboarder from other similar apps is the
ability to display several sequences of notes on the same fretboard. You can
overlap scales and arpeggios, display their intersections and select specific
positions on the neck.
💻 **Use on any device**
The UI has been designed to be simple and intuitive, and to work on both desktop
and mobile devices. Dark mode included!
