So I had an idea for a music app that tries to minimize the amount of music theory needed to play as a group.

Basically you pick a key, then it's just 7 buttons that play the notes in that key. Actually 21 because there are three octaves.

This has some neat effects. You can play thirds by just hitting every other button.

I wanted kids to get started playing as a group without having to worry about wrong notes. Everything is in the same key so it never sounds too bad.

There's not much to look at, I just started it last Friday. https://github.com/wmill/EasyMusic

I'll throw on some screenshots if there's any interest. I could actually use some feedback from someone who knows a bit about music, my knowledge is pretty minimal.
