TabFont: Instant Guitar Tab Visualization

Created by Philatype, TabFont is a specialized tool designed to automatically render guitar chords as you type them.

🎸 How it Works

The system converts text-based chord names or numeric tab notations into visual fretboard diagrams.

🎹 The Chord Library

TabFont boasts a massive library of 700+ chords. While the picker only displays a small subset, the variety is extensive.

Sample Chord Selection:

  • Major/Minor: Cmaj, Am, Gmaj, Em, Dm, F#m, Amaj7, Em7, C#m
  • Dominant/7ths: Bb7, Cmaj7, D7, F#7, Dm7, G7, Fmaj
  • Suspended/Augmented/Diminished: Esus2, Gsus4, Caug, Ebaug, Absus2, Fsus4, Gdim, Ddim, F#sus2
  • Others: Bmaj, A#, Dsus2, Fm7, Gaug, Bbsus4, Emaj, C7, Abm, Csus4

✨ A Hidden Bonus: You aren't limited to chord names! Typing actual tab notation also triggers the rendering engine.
