Daniela Vázquez (@d4tagirl; 20): @EnterEnergy @g3rv4 I used the blogdown book for migrating from Jekyll and I (almost) didn’t need anything else! There are plenty of resources out there, I can try and find you some Twitter threads if you need!

João Pedro (@KimJoaoUn; 20): @PedrooCava @romulopredes To usando o blogdown mesmo. Aí dou pull para o github e atualiza automaticamente.

Gianluca Baio (@gianlubaio; 10): just managed to: a) create a new “shortcode” to add a text block prefixed by a smily-winky face in hugo/blogdown; b) updated my homepage to include my motto/personal view of the world. Too much? > https://t.co/a4cBABOpx4

Daniela Vázquez (@d4tagirl; 10): @aschinchon @g3rv4 It was pretty straight forward following the blogdown book! If you are happy with the theme as is, maybe it will take you a couple of hours. I tweaked it so it took me longer + html widgets that I didn’t do. 🍀🍀🍀

B.U (@EnterEnergy; 10): @d4tagirl @g3rv4 Really nice - I want to do the whole blogdown/hugo thing this year - any advise how I can learn?

Wyatt Bensken (@Wyatt_Bensken; 10): @dhlwilson @AcademicChatter Thanks, David! I have heard a great deal about blogdown but have never tried it. This may be my motivation.

David Wilson (@dhlwilson; 10): @Wyatt_Bensken @AcademicChatter If you like having control and autonomy within a theme or tinkering under the hood then Hugo is worth a look. I built mine (link in bio) with the academic theme via blogdown for R The learning curve is a bit steep if your new to markdown but it’s been a good learning experience.

Solomon Kurz (@SolomonKurz; 10): @byrd_nick For a Bayesian multilevel model approach to mediation, check out the bmlm package (https://t.co/PFqRh2EoHJ). For a more general Bayesian approach, the brms package works just fine (https://t.co/U5lxSYgPsS; see also https://t.co/SSZViepkrd).

Ken Butler (@KenButler12; 10): @thejholloway yesterday my lecture notes ran swimmingly in R Studio but I couldn’t use knitr from a makefile and compile them. Nothing complicated about it, but it took a chunk of the evening to figure out.

(((Lukas Kawerau))) (@LukasKawerau; 0/1): Hey #rstats, how do I escape special characters in {texreg} coefficients when the tables are created dynamically by {drake}? Knitr complains about squared terms like foo:I(bar^2) in the latex coefficient list because the ^2 is not escaped to \^2 by texreg.
