blogdown
Dilsher Dhillon (@TexanDhillon; 0/0): Twitter fam - I need recommendations on creating a data science blog. I intend to include both R and python tutorials. R blogdown is an option but would it support python tutorials as well? #rstats @BecomingDataSci @dataandme @chrisalbon @hadleywickham ↪
bookdown
John Coene (@jdatap; 13/4): 🤗 to push the {sigmajs} 📦 to CRAN, I truly hope it helps the #rstats community as much as it helps me. I genuinely believe it brings a lot to visualising networks in R. I’ve overdone the docs with #pkgdown and #bookdown in an effort to make it all clear.

Hiroaki Yutani (@yutannihilat_en; 2/2): TIL: usethis::use_rmarkdown_template() does all the things to create an R Markdown template, which I can’t remember and always google around. Nice! #rstats https://t.co/pod0vvgy9U ↪
smart-R (@smartR101; 1/1): Enjoyed the workshops on #tidyverse and web scraping #rvest https://t.co/QiE6lSlPQC on https://t.co/FhcRCFWVnY most of the material can be found ↪
Christopher Harms 🇪🇺 (@chrisharms; 0/0): RStudio is nice for writing pure R code, but I writing bookdown/RMarkdown feels better in VSCode. Unfortunately, no R or RMarkdown support in VSCode yet. Hopefully, Microsoft will release RTVS for VSCode soon (https://t.co/N55tWjDouw). ↪

knitr
Jennifer Thompson (@jent103; 1/0): @stephhazlitt That’s a great way to look at it! Mine is from when I was primarily using knitr + Latex (vs Rmd) so I’m struggling with some overflow errors and control sequences 🙃 but will think these happy thoughts! ↪
Sabrina Arias (@sabrinabarias; 0/0): Help please- does anyone know how to change the line spacing of an abstract in the YAML of an RMD document? (The rest of the paper is specified as - \usepackage{setspace}\doublespacing, but I’d like the abstract alone to be \singlespacing) #rmarkdown #knitr ↪
3nrique0 (@3nrique0; 0/0): To use or not to use #Notebooks. This is a very informed opinion, and to be sincere I’ve been laughing like a kid watching cartoons AND learning stuff I ignored. I wonder if #Rmd and #knitr hide similar problems. – I’ll have to give it a try https://t.co/LAzAUC055F ↪
Silas Tittes (@SilasTittes; 0/0): All the examples I can find online use Sweave and Knitr, which opens a can of worms when it comes to writing manuscripts to submit to journals. ↪
xaringan
We are R-Ladies (@WeAreRLadies; 33/7): 🎞 Interested in making slides using #rstats?
💜 Planning on giving an #RLadies presentation?
@apreshill has created a xaringan template for you! Check out her blog post:

Michael Pawlus (@michaelpawlus; 1/0): Didn’t end up doing as much python work as I wanted but worked some into my #ApraDAS2018 presentation where I also used {xaringan} for the first time (which was a definite open goal). Chaired a conference that saw 50% increase in attendance. All in all, a good #SoDS ↪

Yihui Xie (@xieyihui; 0/0): @Offshore16 You must have turned on the chunk option tidy = TRUE, which uses formatR, and formatR failed to format your code. For possible reasons, see Section 6: https://t.co/U9SyveVvQu ↪
