Jetlag has made me crazy. I just spent several minutes considering migrating my jekyll website to blogdown, even though @xieyihui clearly states 'it took me a whole week (from the morning to midnight every day) to migrate several of my […] websites.'

Amelia McNamara (@AmeliaMN; 150): Jetlag has made me crazy. I just spent several minutes considering migrating my jekyll website to blogdown, even though @xieyihui clearly states “it took me a whole week (from the morning to midnight every day) to migrate several of my […] websites.”

Wei Yang Tham (@wytham88; 51): Tonight is making a new website night, starting with this incredible set of slides from @apreshill https://t.co/CLCO9gkcSG

Rob (@coleman; 41): making nice with blogdown! #rstats 😀

Joshua Loftus (@joftius; 21): New website using @xieyihui’s #blogdown #rstats in @rstudio – now I just need to write some actual blog posts… What should I write about? https://t.co/VhSQ0QSIJW

Mine CetinkayaRundel (@minebocek; 10): @huseynovecon Var, ama cok uzun zamandır yazamadım! https://t.co/hhzlBihjLi Blogdown’a gecirmeye zaman ayirabilirsem yakinda daha sık yazabilirim.

Wei Yang Tham (@wytham88; 10): I only have the vaguest understanding of how my current Jekyll site works, so I’m excited to transition to blogdown and try out the academic themes https://t.co/T9j3z5qChX

Scott Reeves (@DataSciScott; 0/0): @AmeliaMN @xieyihui blogdown is cool but for my simple uses Hugo needs more non-bloggy templates. As yet I’m sticking with straight markdown.

Ken Butler (@KenButler12; 10): @dataandme @LucyStats @kierisi I have a stack of problems and solutions that I’ve made for my courses. I gotta share these more generally. I’m feeling a compulsion to learn bookdown!

R OSS (@oss_rlang; 0/0): bookdown - :exclamation: This is a read-only mirror of the CRAN R package repository. book… https://t.co/mzOtOIb1K0

Aliakbar Akbaritabar (@Akbaritabar; 0/0): @healthandstats @rstatsbot1234 @rstudio It is great to read this! And comments! So I am not alone ;) I have been writing quite everything with Rmarkdown and git/GitHub makes is so much easier to keep track of things and report what is going on in different versions. Did you use “bookdown” to compile the final report?

knitr

Susannah Cowtan (@SuusJC; 10): @wmlandau @rOpenSci Like the look of the package; do you have an example you could post in the docs of using it with latex in knitr?

Will Landau (@wmlandau; 0/0): @SuusJC @rOpenSci Are you looking for a solution with LaTeX specifically? Those examples should work the same if your knitr report is an Rnw rather than an Rmd.

Will Landau (@wmlandau; 0/0): @SuusJC @rOpenSci devtools::install_github(“ropensci/drake”) # For the latest example code. drake_examples() # List the examples with code samples.

Examples with R Markdown knitr reports:

example_drake(“basic”) # Writes the code files example_drake(“packages”) example_drake(“gsp”)

Will Landau (@wmlandau; 0/0): @SuusJC @rOpenSci Thanks, Susannah. The first three “articles” at https://t.co/CgybpE85ad feature workflows with knitr reports at the very end. See the pedagogical examples at https://t.co/wE1afYGLCL for the code.
