Building an interactive, editable, customizeable musical fake-book.

Understanding the Theory

Initially, I wanted a system that takes in a .chordpro (or .pro) file, which is a means of presenting a song as a text file with chord symbols in, and display both the song and the chords to play it, in the instrument of choice.

Mostly, I have it working at this point, purely in the theoretical. The next step is to set it up to support either a remote system (database) or local system (IndexedDB and/or File System Access API). For now, though, it is running here

To Be Done

  • Add file system support,
  • add offline support,
  • add more system default chords,
  • add a system to allow user default chords,
