This is really cool! I think the chord naming has some bugs, but it's been awhile since I studied theory. For example all the diminished triads are labeled "min 7-5" which is kind of alien to me (and wrong, there's no 7), shouldn't it be "dim" or "o"?

Feature request: viewing the intervals on a keyboard/fretboard, with different colors/numbering for each scale degree.

In jazz notation it's common to use minus sign to mean minor or flat. That particular chord (the half-diminished) is written as -7b5

It's not half diminished though, since there's no 7? I'm talking about just the diminished triad (min 3rd + min 3rd). It's been years since I read jazz notation (classical background), but I thought that was just written "dim"

Even though i was careful with chord naming ill look into it, and about the feature request - expect it in a future update :)
