Gianca··on Fretastic: Guitar fretboard visualizer – scales, intervals, backing tracks
There is a specific formula to compute fret widths, that is something like that:

Dn = [(L – Dn-1) ÷ 17.817] + Dn-1

I implemented it in my guitar learning software, because, I agree with you, visual perception is important in my opinion: https://www.fachords.com/guitar-learning-software/

Hi, I'm the creator of FaChords Guitar (the one shown at the top of the list). Happy to see that there are lots of fellow guitarists&developer out there. My site runs on Django, that is a cool web-framework and a Gipsy Jazz guitar player, this is fun :-)

Hi, there are some interesting projects if you google "jam online". I also believe that 5g will improve this kind of interaction, introducing new scenarios and collaboration ways.

This feature is under construction but will be available shortly. I think it would be appreciated a lot in tools like the fretboard notes game, in which users will use a real guitar instead of the mouse. Thanks for your comment!

Yep you're right. The fact is that the content on the website has grown a lot in the last years, there's really plenty of information. I try to help users digest the material with an autoresponder that starts when users subscribe; they receive periodic email with step-by-step chunks of information. Thank you for your feedback!

I'm a guitar teacher and software engineer from Italy, FaChords Guitar is my labor of love. It provides interactive guitar learning software ( https://www.fachords.com/guitar-learning-software/ ), as well as lessons on practice and music theory to help maximize the training (here's mylast post all about how memory works https://www.fachords.com/effective-memory-practice/ )

Hope you'll take a look at it, thanks!
