Build a metronome app for your own practice pattern
A piano student in his mid-seventies and 12th year of lessons had Grok Bot team up with Cursor to build a metronome web app he can install on his iPad. It has accurate timing, visual beats, subdivisions, presets and his own pattern of quarter note triplets over two beats across four bars. The project took under 30 minutes. None of his metronomes could do this, but Grok Bot steered Cursor, and both come with his 30 dollar monthly membership.

How to do it
- Paste the prompt into the tool, and replace the text in brackets with your own.
- Read the answer through. Do not send, delete or publish anything until you have seen it yourself.
- Check the original before you trust a figure, a name or a date.
Try it with Cursor
Build a metronome web app I can install on my tablet. It should have accurate timing, visual beats, subdivisions and saved presets, plus my own pattern: [describe it, for example quarter note triplets over two beats across four bars]. Show me a sketch of the screen and how the pattern is counted before anything is built or changed. You are done when the app is on my home screen and the pattern has run a full minute without slipping.
