How do I create my first chord diagram?
Creating your first diagram takes less than a minute. Here's how:
Step 1: Open Chorducate
Go to chorducate.com/create and you'll see an infinite canvas ready for your diagrams.
Step 2: Add a fretboard
Click the fretboard tool in the toolbar (it looks like a guitar neck). Click anywhere on the canvas to place your diagram.
Step 3: Add notes
Click on any fret position to add a note. You can:
- Click to add a note
- Click again to remove it
- Drag to reposition notes
- Change colors to highlight different fingers or scale degrees
Step 4: Customize (optional)
- Add labels for finger numbers
- Change the number of frets shown
- Add a title or annotation
- Switch between guitar, bass, or ukulele
Step 5: Export or share
When you're done, click Export to download as PNG or SVG, or click Share to generate a link.
That's it! You've created your first professional chord diagram.
