Usage

This website was created for my needs as a learning guitarist, but I thought I'd share it with the GitHub community! It offers a broad range of songsheet capabilities that include lyric scraping, adding chords and strumming patterns, auto scrolling, and more!

You can also look at public songsheets that other guitarists have publicized!
