I’m thrilled to be able to add Tin Whistle tablature as an export option for the abcjs-eskin Website Builder
The abcjs-eskin Website Builder is a free, open-source, simple-to-use web tool for turning one or more ABC tune files into a complete standalone music website.
You can load ABC files, choose a visual theme, pick notation or tablature display modes, add page text, configure playback sound settings, and then export a finished HTML page with tune navigation, embedded ABC, notation, and individual players for each tune.
It also works nicely alongside the ABC Transcription Tools.
The generated websites can include buttons to open individual tunes back in the ABC Transcription Tools for playing, editing, or full-screen viewing.
You can also go the other direction: from the ABC Transcription Tools, use the “Sharing Controls” dialog to send tunes directly into the Website Builder and quickly turn them into a shareable tune collection website.
You can find the tool at:

You can now send a full tunebook of ABC tunes from the ABC Transcription Tools directly to the abcjs-eskin Website Builder.
The abcjs-eskin Website Builder is a powerful standalone website-building tool for creating complete multi-tune ABC websites with modern visual themes, embedded notation, tablature options, playback controls, soundfont support, and table-of-contents navigation.
Here’s a website version of the Comhaltas San Diego tune learning class tunebook.
It has 122 common session tunes with an instrument/tablature selector at the top that lets you select between several traditional Irish music session instruments:
Piano
Mandolin
Tenor Banjo
GDAD Bouzouki
Standard Guitar
DADGAD Guitar
Tin Whistle
Irish Flute
Accordion
Concertina
Hammered Dulcimer.
For the stringed instruments, Tin Whistle, and Irish Flute instruments, you’ll get notation+tablature.
You can also click the “Play in ABC Transcription Tools” button at the top left to open them in the ABC Transcription Tools player, where you can play or train on the tune, export the audio or a PDF of the tune.
Created with the ABC Transcription Tools and the latest version of the “abcjs-eskin Website Builder”.
