blogdown
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 754⁄227): If you’re an academic you need a website so that people can easily find info about your research and publications. Here’s how to make your own website for free in an under an hour using the blogdown package in #Rstats [THREAD] https://t.co/9Lmo00Gkf0 ↪
Joseph V. Casillas (@jvcasill; 9⁄1): @dsquintana @BruceSmithAUS @anandgururajan If you keep your pubs in a .bib file you can use the #RefManageR 📦 to produce a bibliography in markdown or html… so perfect for Rmd file and #blogdown. ↪
Steph de Silva (@StephdeSilva; 7⁄3): And even if you’re not an academic, it’s useful to have a place for people to find you. I’ve switched to blogdown recently and and this tweet-through is fantastic. https://t.co/IYtmP9o04e ↪
Alison Hill (@apreshill; 7⁄2): 🤞🏽Help me help my students: What is hard about #blogdown 🤯? #rstats https://t.co/XB2jB7KMZu https://t.co/amTeXxRVVy ↪
R-Ladies LA 🌴 (@RLadiesLA; 6⁄1): At our May meetup 5⁄19 we will dive into the world of R Markdown! R Markdown basics, blogdown, and plotly https://t.co/gSt3zTf663 #RLadies #rstats ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 6⁄0): For more info about the excellent blogdown package from @xieyihui and team, check out the online blogdown textbook https://t.co/GCLlBKadQ6 https://t.co/i5fgbguiNO ↪
Dale Maschette (@Dale_Masch; 6⁄0): how my experience with #blogdown is going so far. https://t.co/J82zyYRDTN ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 5⁄1): Install blogdown in R using this command:
install.packages(“blogdown”)
Then start a new project, entering “gcushen/hugo-academic” as the Hugo theme. Keep the other options ticked. This will download all the necessary files. https://t.co/74gzKnyc7M ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 5⁄0): @fibrou @robinson_es I will post a blog post version of this thread soon—I’ll append it to the end of the thread when ready.
In the meantime, I’d check out the free blogdown book https://t.co/GCLlBKadQ6 ↪
Pachá 帕夏 (@pachamaltese; 5⁄0): I updated my personal website and this time I moved everything (not just blog) to blogdown. Thanks @xieyihui !!! https://t.co/SKghNLyISX ↪

Diego Trindade (@diegopftrindade; 3⁄0): #blogdown is really cool! Here is my website, with a mini blogdown tutorial in Portuguese 🙂🙂 https://t.co/FkgODQrxhV https://t.co/97KFII11Up ↪
Charles T. Gray (@cantabile; 2⁄0): @statsgen @sarah_romanes @john_t_ormerod I’m going to take you up on that, @statsgen - and I believe @HollyKirk is with us on the blogdown odyssey, too. I think she’s also like me, too busy to do much on it right now, but it’s on the list. ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 2⁄0): Alternatively, R + blogdown is free and can integrate with the Hugo framework, which provides a ton of templates. It also uses Markdown, which is a straightforward markup language. ↪
Emi Tanaka 🌾 (@statsgen; 2⁄0): @kelseymoty Your website looks fantastic even without blogdown ↪
Philipp Gärtner (@gartn001; 1⁄1): In case you use #blogdown with the hugo-tranquilpeak-theme from @thibaudlepretre. You can add #rstats syntax highlighting by adding
customJS = [“https://t.co/HWaA92RmDT"]
in the [params] section of your config.toml file!! https://t.co/muVZLctNdE ↪
Janani Ravi (@janani137; 1⁄0): Yet to host but loving it so far! @GoHugoIO #blogdown @xieyihui @georgecushen #rstats @rstudio https://t.co/sCc8J3HfeZ ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): @D_Wiwad Not sure if you can do this directly via blogdown, but seems possible via Hugo https://t.co/70e6vZZTU1 ↪
Anne-Wil Kruijt (@t_awkr; 1⁄0): @fnielsen @dsquintana @MagnusManske This is all pretty awesome, though quite a a puzzle at first. Am I correct to think that for stats like co-authors, citations, etc it only takes into account authors/citing works that are also on wikidata? At any rate I am partly set now for the blogdown challenge! Thanks both! ↪
Dylan Wiwad (@D_Wiwad; 1⁄0): @dsquintana This is amazing. I haven’t dove super deep into this yet, but do you know if you can you also host jupyter notebooks in python on a site created with blogdown? ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): @matteodefelice Yes, absolutely. Check the out the blogdown book for these details https://t.co/xrjHvv5WMC ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): @IoanaA_Cristea @juicethemodeler Thanks to @jvcasill, I just found out it’s possible to bulk import your entire reference list by using the #RefManageR package if you have your bibliography in a .bib file. I’ll look into how this fits into my blogdown workflow soon… ↪
Sarah Romanes (@sarah_romanes; 1⁄0): @TheRealJimShady @statsgen Hi James – not sure if you are still having issues, but this is what helped me link the blogdown to github https://t.co/Mzn2RONZmA (scroll down to the comments to the comment that starts with “OMG I fixed it” – this was the sol that worked for me). Hope this helps! ↪
Dale Maschette (@Dale_Masch; 1⁄0): @cantabile I managed to set up a gitpage by itself but then cant seem to get blogdown to work with it!!!!! And then I rage quit ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): One common way to upload your website and keep it updated is by hosting your files on Github. But if you want to get set up quickly, just drag the ‘public’ folder from your blogdown project into Netlify. https://t.co/BCwp6gBBfJ ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): To build and view your site, run these two commands:
blogdown::build_site() blogdown::serve_site()
The viewer window will render a mobile version of your site, but you can also see a desktop version in your browser https://t.co/xR4WX3SZmX ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 1⁄0): So why use blogdown? Sure, there are several free options available to start your own blog (e.g., Medium). However, you generally can’t list your publications or other information easily on these services. Also, who knows where these services will be in a few years? ↪
Katherine Scranton (@DrScranto; 0/1): What kind of website should we make as our @RLadiesLA example with blogdown? ↪
GoHugo 🔥TOP🔥BOT🔥 (@hugo_top_bot; 0/0): deploy blogdown in R https://t.co/s7YXY9faEC ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 0/0): @matteodefelice Not sure as I’m not familiar with Jekyll. But it’s mentioned in a few sections of the blogdown book, like here https://t.co/nfS0GOt8GQ ↪
クロネル@まーさん (@chroneru_mineru; 0/0): blogdown面白そう。 Githubのローカルリポジトリ調整しないといけないけど、やってみたい。 ↪
Dan Quintana (@dsquintana; 0/0): If your website isn’t updating, this could mean that one of your files has an error. Unfortunately, blogdown sometimes won’t reveal the source of the error. You can get more info by accessing Hugo in Terminal. ↪
bookdown
Alexander Chamessian (@achamess; 76⁄23): Every time I use #rmarkdown/#bookdown from @xieyihui and @rstudio to write this manuscript/thesis, my mind is blown. Automatically updated figure numbers, in-line data values rather than writing them in by hand. Amazing! #phdlife #academic https://t.co/ZIWODeeGpx ↪

Joseph V. Casillas (@jvcasill; 0/0): @dsquintana @IoanaA_Cristea @juicethemodeler The example on my website is a little complicated because I did some javascript stuff as well, but we recently made this pay nicely with #xaringan. There is an example using #RefManageR here: https://t.co/9ahn9xMwLc ↪
