Sheetify is a desktop-based sheet music management system developed with C# and .NET. It functions as a comprehensive platform for musicians to buy, sell, organize, and digitize sheet music, both in PDF and image formats. This application aims to centralize all music score-related tasks in a single intuitive environment.
Sheetify includes multiple integrated modules and technologies:
- Score Management: Users can upload PDF or image-based sheet music. Through the integration of Audiveris, the app digitizes physical scores using Optical Music Recognition (OMR).
- Secure Authentication: Passwords are securely encrypted using
BCrypt.Netbefore being stored in the database. - License System: Scores can be shared under free or paid licenses. Paid licenses include time-limited access and download permissions.
- Store and Cart System: Users can browse and purchase scores, track their orders, and receive receipts in PDF format.
- Admin Tools: Administrators can approve uploads, manage users, licenses, sales, and monitor platform-wide activity.
While existing music software platforms focus on either performance or editing, few provide a full offline management solution with features such as:
- Optical Music Recognition for physical score conversion.
- Offline score organization with metadata-based filters.
- License-restricted content distribution and PDF rendering.
- Secure and personalized user accounts with purchase history.
- Educator- and student-friendly workflow for classroom or professional use.
- Language: C#
- Framework: .NET Framework (WinForms)
- OCR Engine: Audiveris
- PDF Tools: PDFsharp, MigraDoc, PdfiumViewer
- Database: SQL Server
- Authentication: BCrypt.Net
Sheetify was developed to fill that gap, offering an extensible and modular system that can scale from individual musicians to institutions.
