I love Tonal.js, have used it for many personal projects including https://github.com/grimmdude/MidiWriterJS

Many older cars require you to hold the handle up while you close the door to prevent you from accidentally locking yourself out.

I've been using PHP for years and am a believer. It's just as good, if not better in many cases, as other languages used for similar purpose. Especially with the features PHP 7 brings; I particularly like the more robust type hinting. Just gotta write good code!

Ha very cool! I like that punctuation marks add some flair.

Same happens for me, realty.com -> realtor.com. However, explicitly typing https://realty.com works fine.

100% agree with the sentiment that client side rendering is overused.

Very cool! Would be fun to add a MIDI export feature, could use my MidiWriter library https://github.com/grimmdude/MidiWriterJS

So does it have to boot up before you can use it?

Cool to see a guitar post on the front page of HN, I suppose it makes sense since many of the programmers I know are also musicians.

I'm a guitar player as well, been playing for about 20 years. Completely agree with all your points, especially that it's a "deep instrument". Many people think there's a progress bar for learning it which maxes out, but that progress bar's max is ever increasing (or it should be if you're doing it right).

Shameless plug for my guitar videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFFBlI__po2CBLrtynTNbIA

Submitted MidiWriterJS about a year and a half ago (https://github.com/grimmdude/MidiWriterJS). I think the majority of the stars and usage it gets came because of that.
