Hey all, Is there anyone running Tidalcycles in RaspPi4 ? I installed supercollider without problem, with sc3 plugins. But it looks like my problem is this. find the right editor like atom or emacs ... 🤔 ---

I used to run it on a pi and ended up using vscode. It ran pretty well. ---

Hey there's a thread by @renzo.rospigliosi here that talks about it, I know he managed to do it successfully: > [@Tidal on Raspberry Pi 4 with Ubuntu?](https://club.tidalcycles.org/t/tidal-on-raspberry-pi-4-with-ubuntu/2364): > > Hello! I'm trying to install TidalCycles on a Raspberry Pi 4 with ubuntu 20. Supercollider works fine but when i run 'cabal install tidal' it installs but ends showing the message: Warning: You asked to install executables, but there are no executables in target: tidal. Perhaps you want to use --lib to install libraries instead. And in emacs, it will show the following error when running a code like 'd1 $ s "bd"': GHCi, version 8.8.3: [https://www.haskell.org/ghc/](https://www.haskell.org/ghc/) :? for help Loaded pac… I ran a poll a while ago about what operating system people are using, there was at least one RPi user in there too: > [@\[Poll\] What Platform are you using TidalCycles on?](https://club.tidalcycles.org/t/poll-what-platform-are-you-using-tidalcycles-on/488): > > Hi all, Simple question: What platform (as in, Operating System) are you using Tidal Cycles on?

> [@afalfl](#): > > but for editor like atom or emacs doesn't work I'm afraid I have never been able to get emacs to work (on any system), so I can't help there - I don't think that atom does builds for arm64 I know that vscode does build for arm64, but it doesn't get included in the standard vscode repository (you have to download separately) alternatively, is vim/neovim an option? ---

well, if you use my installer, there's not much to know - it will install and set itself up, all you'll need to do is: ```haskell vim foo.tidal i # switches to "insert" mode d1 $ s "bd" +e # executes ``` all the best!
