Benjamin Brown (@benjamincwbrown; 10): @tjohnhos @arun_bassoon @ryankeleti I’ve been having some fun with (https://t.co/InoA4Fv0QK) w/ Rmarkown to both html & PDF (uses MathJax though instead of Katex). There is a demo of the html it produces here https://t.co/ogz931Si8N. My favourite thing about it is I know how to use latex macros with it❤️

David Nield (@DRNield; 10): @JaeJaeykim2 As far as I’m aware, bookdown is great for e-publishing because the HTML support is great, but it might not be ideal for working with traditional publishers (where they won’t want your file in Rmd, TeX, or PDF format, they may want just plaintext XML or something).

David R. Feinberg, PhD (@davidrfeinberg; 10): @theaknowles @Laserhedvig @rstudio @xieyihui I don’t know. There’s Jamovi already for that. This is for word processing. I know alot of people use bookdown and such, so it’s probably good for them, but they’re also probably advanced users.

Mikhail Popov (@bearloga; 363): Just published a blog post in which I re-write the knitr engine for @mcmc_stan to use CmdStanR instead of RStan, with support for caching the compiled executables: https://t.co/r7ofEySibE > Created and used the engine in the same R Markdown document that I wrote the blog post in. https://t.co/Ry7WfRcZqe

Mikhail Popov (@bearloga; 323): 🎉 New in {CmdStanR} 0.1.1: replacement knitr engine for @mcmc_stan chunks in R Markdown documents. See vignette for example: https://t.co/zsPgJdshnp > 👏🏻 Shoutout to maintainers Jonah Gabry & Rok Češnovar for a super positive code review experience with the pull request for this. https://t.co/njfmfzvPip

Mikhail Popov (@bearloga; 294): What’s funny to me is the progression: 1. being silly by making a SymPy engine 2. JD: “whoa you can make your own knitr engines?” 3. Me: “yup, here’s how. You can even rewrite the Stan one” 4. Good idea, I should prolly write a blog post 5. Oh this works, I should contribute it https://t.co/UAwSa2f5qb

Gustavo Vital (@gustavoovital; 30): @luangcandido @IanVazAraujo Eu só modifiquei a classe da ABNTex. Montar uma no Markdown deve dar MUITO trabalho, melhor compilar com o knitr mesmo

Dr. Timothée Poisot (@tpoi; 30): @ipnosimmia I like Weave a lot, which is not a knitr engine, but uses much of the same syntax. It’s doing caching well, and uses sandboxing to make sure nothing from the doc interacts with Main

Mikhail Popov (@bearloga; 20): Posted this rather late last night around midnight so ICYMI (likely) I rewrote the built-in engine for Stan chunks to use {CmdStanR} instead of {RStan} with support for caching the executables to avoid re-compiling whenever R Markdown doc is knit/rendered: https://t.co/r7ofEySibE

Christophe Dervieux (@chrisderv; 20): @yoniceedee @krlmlr @FrederikAust Indeed the list is dynamic and depends on package loaded 😆 📝 to myself: create a curated list of 📦 including knitr engine! Thank you for the idea.

Jonathan Leslie (@jlesliedata; 11): TIL: Using pairs of emdashes (“—“) to create a long dash (“–”) in .Rmd files can corrupt knitting: knitr thinks that some first-level chapter headings are missing. I guess it interprets the emdash as a yaml header? Happy to be corrected if my understanding is wrong! #rstats

Nathan Rutenbeck (@anywillowbrook; 10): @bearloga @mcmc_stan Just came across your blog post on this, and thought you would want to know there is an important typo - the call in the post is different than the package function - package function: register_knitr_engine() vs in your post: register_knit_engine(). > Thanks! So excited for this!
