MiniTidal is a slightly reduced version of TidalCycles.
Something important to mention is that the MiniTidal version in Estuary differs slightly from the original Tidal Cycles syntax.
For example, in Estuary, you can run the following line:
s "cp"
But in Tidal Cycle’s workshops and references, you will find the the following structures:
d1 $ s “cp"
once $ s "cp"
If you use the references and examples from Tidal’s website, do not add structures such as d1 $
or once $
.

or room
won’t work.
Using your own samples in Estuary is possible, but it has a work around using GitHub pages. You can follow these tutorials:
