Voicings, chords will definitely come into fingerstyle playing at some point, If I'm learning a piece and that arrangement has certain chords or voicings that I have to learn practically to be able to play the arrangement, I'm fine with that, because I'm learning the chord voicings in context of what I'm interested in. Unlike the fundamentals where I have to learn A LOT of chords that I am always not looking forward to learn.
What I really wanna say is that 80% of the entire fundamentals 1 and 2 is about chords and I am genuinely wondering if chords is all that important as a foundation for fingerstyle, as you can see in the homepage it goes from fundamentals 1, to 2 then to the other specified styles.
