OpenChords

OpenChords is a digital songbook for guitarists and other musicians

Background

OpenChords was built to solve two primary needs:

  • Easily transpose the key of a song

  • Filing music is tedious and I wanted a fully paperless system for musicians

Features

  • Present any song with chords and lyrics in a easy to read high contrast color-theme

  • Transpose the song key and change capo of the songs on the fly

  • Export your songs to a tablet and print friendly HTML format

  • Easily export a set of songs to OpenSong (a great open source software for displaying lyrics over a projector)

  • New Cross-platform UI using eto.forms.
