ABC Notation

ABC Notation is a text-based system used to write and share sheet music, especially for traditional and folk tunes. It uses simple letters and symbols to represent notes, rhythms, and other musical elements, making it easy to read and edit on a computer. Think of it as a universal language for music, allowing musicians to quickly communicate and preserve melodies without needing complex music notation software. ABC Notation is popular among folk musicians, composers, and online communities for its simplicity and portability.
