This is an interactive python app to learn the pentatonic scales on guitar. It's just started, and only does a minor pentatonic right now. There's a command line version and a handy GUI version as well. It can play the scale, and listen to you play it back. It will grade you on accuracy, and show you the results.

It's gamified, and you start at 120bpm, and once you hit 100%, it increases 10 bpm. You can set your target bpm. Once you hit the target, the next position opens up.

I didn't write a single line of code for this. I used Claude 3.5 to generate it, and iterated through it about 30 times.

It's very basic, and just scratching an itch I had. Feel free to steal it, improve it, etc. I may update it again when I have time.

============== To run this program on your machine do the following:

git clone https://github.com/fmerenda/Pentatonic-Guitar-Trainer.git cd Pentatonic-Guitar-Trainer/ python3 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt

Then you can run either file with: python3 $FILENAME

If you have problems building the audio module, you may have to do the following on your linux machine (debian based dists):

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install portaudio19-dev python3-pyaudio rm -rf venv python3 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt
