Umaro
The calmest way to learn music theory
What it does
Learn music theory with a calm, interactive suite of tools. Visualize scales, train your ear, identify chords, and practice rhythm in a distraction-free environment. Unlike static, ad-heavy theory sites, Umaro is a reactive tool. It listens to your guitar (Ghost Mode) to visualize notes in real-time, synthesizes audio so you can hear the theory you're learning, and offers a distraction-free UI for more deep focus. No ads, no sign-ups, no gimmicks.

Hello HN, I just released this music theory and ear training mobile app for guitar which I've been working on for a bit more than a year on the side.

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
