Show HN: Music Rhythm Reading Trainer

A developer published Soitax, a free single-page web app for practicing music rhythm reading, with an optional Game Mode.

SOURCES1

A developer going by the handle nullzzz launched Soitax, a browser-based music rhythm reading trainer, posting it to Hacker News on August 25, 2026 as a Show HN.

The app lives at soitax.app and runs entirely in a single page with no cookies and no ads, per the creator's HN post. It includes a Game Mode for users who prefer a more structured or competitive practice format alongside the standard rhythm reading exercises.

Nullzzz describes the project as something built to sharpen their own rhythm reading skills — a "vibe coded" tool that started as a personal utility before being shared publicly. No frameworks, monetization plans, or team members are mentioned in the source.

The launch sits in a small but active niche of browser-based music education tools, where low-friction, no-install practice aids have found steady audiences among hobbyist musicians and students. Soitax's single-page, dependency-light approach follows a pattern common among developer-built side projects shared on Hacker News. No further development roadmap or expansion plans were disclosed in the post.
