A site per subject is a strange shape for one project, so these are the questions it produces. Each answer is about the network rather than about music; the music questions are answered on the sites themselves.
- Why is the network split across separate sites?
- Because depth and breadth are different products. A site that tries to be the best banjo site and the best keyboard site and the best theory site is the best at none of them, and its navigation belongs to nobody. Splitting them lets each site have one audience, one vocabulary and one shape — and lets the links between them be honest about who answers what.
- Which site should I start with?
- One instrument: open that instrument’s site. Several instruments: String Warrior compares them directly. Not sure what a thing is called: Theory Warrior. Can play it but cannot hear it: Ear Warrior. Heading to a jam: Bluegrass Warrior. The directory on this site has all of them in one table.
- Are they all free?
- Yes. No accounts, no subscriptions, no ads, and nothing tracking you from one site to the next. There is no login anywhere on the network to forget.
- Why do some sites say they are being built?
- They exist in the codebase and pass the same checks as the rest, but they are not finished and not open to readers. Their pages here are written now so the map is complete, and the outgoing link appears by itself on the day the site opens.
- Do the sites duplicate each other’s pages?
- They are mechanically prevented from it. Every site’s page titles and descriptions are compared against every other site’s across the whole content matrix on every change, and a shared template or a lifted phrase fails the build. Every instrument family also has exactly one site that owns it, enforced the same way.
- Can I suggest a site, or a correction?
- Corrections are welcome and are made on the site that owns the page — each one says where to write. A new site is a bigger question than a suggestion box: it only makes sense if there is a subject none of the existing sites can hold without getting worse.
Still not sure where to go? The directory lists every site with the subject it covers and the reader it was written for.
