Fuzzbox
A chord finder that works backwards. Put notes on an interactive fretboard and it works out what you've found, then explains the intervals and the theory behind why it sounds like that.
I found a chord by accident, liked it, and had no idea what it was called. Every tool I looked at assumed I already knew the answer — you type in a chord name and it draws you the shape. I needed it the other way round.
So Fuzzbox works backwards. Put notes on the fretboard and it tells you what you've made and why it sounds like that. It's the thing I could have used in my first year of playing, when I was mostly guessing.
It runs on a design system I put together called Neon Riff: bright color on near-black, which is roughly what a guitar pedal looks like.
