John Butler (@jslbutler; 5110): I’ve made a new website using R-studio with my research, publications, teaching resources and science communication. A big thanks to @dsquintana for his excellent intro to blogdown https://t.co/ZPNMNKj9Au https://t.co/w7i83tyAmO

Gabriela D’Souza (@gabster0191; 91): So i kind of figured out the issue here. I was trying to build a website using Blogdown and the Hugo academic theme. Turns out this doesn’t build well on github pages (even after putting in a .nojekyll file). So i’m going to try netlify instead tonight and see if that works.

Catherine Laing (@cathelaing24; 90): I spent a bit of time (ahem) yesterday making a new personal website using blogdown, as per this excellent thread. I think it looks quite good!

Maarten Demeyer (@mpjdem; 20): @StrepsipZerg @rstatstweet Very good, but most of the actual building work in blogdown is done by Hugo, which is an established framework. That’s where you will actually be doing all your theming and tweaking work!

Desiree L. Narango, PhD (@DLNarango; 20): @DaniRabaiotti I also made a website with markdown/blogdown which is pretty cool. https://t.co/Ze4qo0WpPU > But for more complex stuff it’t not always worth it. You can’t use it to submit jobs to a cluster computer for example.

Katie Lee (@ResourcefulSqrl; 20): @adefenestration I should really put all of my favorite R references together into a blog post eventually…Did I mention I use R to make my blog, too? That’s thanks to work (and reference tutorials) from @xieyihui on Blogdown.

John Butler (@jslbutler; 20): @dsquintana Once again, thanks for the excellent intro to blogdown, it gave me the kick up the ass to finally start properly using GitHub which I’ve been very lazy about. Also, thanks for all the other really useful R tutorials.

Melissa K Sharp (@sharpmelk; 62): I’m working on building something now that uses #RMarkdown #bookdown and #github to serve as a repository/reference of sorts for observational research methods. Hopefully I’ll have a decent skeleton by the end of the year :) #rstats https://t.co/AQ4xjYJKTf

Ryan Peek (@riverpeek; 50): @Voovarb @vsbuffalo @noamross Thankfully all the UCs have different templates & req’d styles. Also it’s great that grad studies has made some minor changes to the requirements every year or so, so templates need to be updated. 😬 > Ultimately I made my own #bookdown aggiedown template so I could write in Rmd https://t.co/Frc8VjjNRi

Michael Friendly (@datavisFriendly; 31): Exploring using an interactive visual TOC for a web site for our forthcoming @HarvardPress book on the history of #datavis.

Alex Holcombe (@ceptional; 30): @McAleerP @LisaDeBruine Wow Phil, this is a really beautiful and useful resource. It re-evokes my geek-lusting for bookdown, which I’ve always loved the idea of. How did you find it, setting this up in bookdown?

Melissa K Sharp (@sharpmelk; 23): #rstats help plz. Working with #rmarkdown & #bookdown Trying to insert citations& have a reference list at the end of each page but code doesnt want to work. I have #pandoc, a bib(tex) file in the right folder, the yaml header, proper intext format…any ideas what I’m missing?

Jakub Nowosad (@jakub_nowosad; 22): Do you want to start writing a book using the #bookdown package? Or maybe you are just interested in making-of stories?

Mark Dulhunty (@markdly_; 22): Looking forward to this meetup. I’ll be briefly sharing highs and lows of writing a paper in bookdown too. All welcome! #rmarkdown #rstats https://t.co/zhYpeSvU0y

David Diaz (@ddiaz292; 20): @HerbieHuang @wedwinthe3rd @DiltsStedman @acocotero @Stata @sammy_rosen Looks like it does (https://t.co/TIue7J1lYN), but I’ve never used anything other than R with it so can’t help out much 😬

Phil McAleer (@McAleerP; 20): @ceptional @LisaDeBruine Thanks! Really appreciate that. Bookdown was great for me as by the time it came to convert the course, Lisa and @dalejbarr had ironed out the kinks. Pretty sure there is a template on the #psyteachr github site you could start on. Much more user friendly than Moodle.

Daniel Finnegan (@Lancophone; 10): @heenrik I also am slowly shifting to R markdown with bookdown so I can couple stats subroutines with paper content and compile to LaTeX

Tiffany Timbers (@TiffanyTimbers; 0/1): Question for #rstats bookdown experts (of which I am not one) - if there is a lag when scrolling through the book on the internet how do you tell whether this is the size of the book, your wifi, or too much traffic to GitHub Pages (and so I should serve it somewhere else)?

knitr

Earo Wang (@earowang; 15425): Compiling my #rmarkdown thesis for pdf & html. I’ve learned 2 #knitr tricks: 1️⃣ use eval = knitr::is_html_output() to tell #gganimate for gif, and is_latex_output() for pdf 2️⃣ use (ref:fig-cap) outside the chunk. If editing the caption, it avoids re-evaluating the chunk https://t.co/QdeqKjwZwu

Erika Roper 🦜🏘🌳 (@_erikaroper; 5414): Hey #RStats peeps! What’s your favourite way to produce a nice table of descriptive stats (ie means, SEs, CIs, sample sizes etc)? Bonus points for html output and R Markdown/knitr compatibility.

Jan Doe (@jkr_hb; 286): When you realize you can use R code directly within @overleaf / #LaTeX documents thanks to knitr. #rstats https://t.co/bkIO7eKDMh

Rosalie Bruel (@RosalieBruel; 70): @JennyBryan Some packages that don’t need captions on my scripts: - captioner to handle figures captions in a Rmd - knitr - janitor for cleaning data 🧹 - wesanderson for color palettes 🎨 - gridExtra to get several ggplots side by side - rnaturalearth vector map of several handy GIS data

Richard D. Morey (@richarddmorey; 50): I feel like I haven’t taken enough advantage of knitr::spin(). I’ve decided to using it for commenting data cleaning scripts and it is really nice, and as a bonus I can source() the code with no problems from other scripts https://t.co/UKHoMZusLU

Federico Molina (@FedeMolinaMagne; 40): Una gema del paquete knitr knitr::knit_hooks$set(inline = function(x) { if(class(x) == “numeric”) { x <- sprintf(“%1.2f”, x) paste(x, collapse = “, “)
} else sprintf(“%s”, x) Y voila quedo formateado todo el documento

Dr Gavin Simpson (@ucfagls; 40): @DaniRabaiotti I wouldn’t use markdown just to make code nice. A good liner, IDE, or style guide should help with that. If you want to mix prose with code, literate programming style, then yes, rmarkdown / knitr all the way

Allison Koh 許恩惠 (@allisonkoh_; 32): Using knitr::purl() for the first time today has me wondering what I’ve been doing over the rest of my R career 🤦🏻‍♀️ #rstats

Rachel Spinks (@RKSpinks; 30): @_erikaroper I use knitr::kable

Jim Hester (@jimhester_; 30): @GaborCsardi @dirk_sch FWIW you can use R markdown / knitr to do full on literate programming, e.g. https://t.co/t0I6i8GWH3 > Though in that example they use roxygen comments, I guess you could have a special chunk type that lets you use some sort of markdown derivative format.

Sergio Uribe (@sergiouribe; 22): great session with @StatGarrett about #reproducibility in #rstats Q: Is there a simple way to set echo = FALSE for the whole document? A: You can use knitr::opts_chunk$set to set the global echo = FALSE (or other settings) https://t.co/JxP2pGaUYA

Romain Lesur (@RLesur; 10): @sheikhbarabas I understand well your goal. Since this template is designed for books, we wanted to have chapters beginning on recto (that’s why you have blank pages). You can use a custom CSS stylesheet without this line https://t.co/fl2GUqjlVW

Colin Fay 🤘 (@_ColinFay; 674): Tonight I was at a party in the neighborhood and some teenagers were talking about “Xaringan this, xaringan that” and I was like “why are these 14 years old talking about #RStats” and then guess what no they were talking about Naruto.

ラジムRadim ・フラジクHladik (@hlageek; 10): @tkasasagi xaringan/remark.js

Gina Reynolds (@EvaMaeRey; 10): @tidypod @BenjaminWolfe Right - different fonts are available on different platforms. Also with @_Gil_Henriques’ code, I think there might have been something problematic with doing a the flipbook walk through. Like how the graphics device works and how it is going to work in Xaringan is messy.

Wei Yang Tham (@wytham88; 10): @Andrew___Baker OK so you have a bunch of folders where your blogdown Project lives, like in the screenshot I attached? you wanna copy and paste the xaringan files into “static”, then push them to github https://t.co/QLbfXYqnet
