Agree about cowplot for precise customization. From the Q&A: 💯 I don’t think an LLM could recreate those in the first few sane attempts. This actually makes me want to try recreating them, thank you, adding to the list. And yes, as we can all see in 2025, history does repeat itself.
My Posit::conf talk is now live on YouTube! 🎥 👉 youtu.be/RxwU1cZ5FiA?... Exploring reproducible design in R & bringing history to life through data. Grateful to the @posit.co team! 💜 #positconf25 #RStats #DataScience

I loved discussing "Positron for RStudio Users: A Gentle Introduction" with @simisani.bsky.social & R-Ladies Gaborone! Check out the recording and materials: 📹 www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fOQ... 📝 ivelasq.rbind.io/talk/positro... I hope this intro is better than the one between my three cats 😹

Hi, I'm Charlotte Wickham and I'm your @weare.rladies.org curator for this week! I'm a developer educator at @posit.co where I work on the @quarto.org team. Before Posit, I worked at @oregonstate.edu where I taught stats, data science and, of course, #rstats.

Lately, I’ve been exploring the brilliant resource DM in R (bit.ly/4d2oDpU) by @cghlewis.bsky.social 📖 It’s full of practical wisdom, especially on organising projects in a clean, reproducible way 🗂️ Here’s an example style guide I’m loving from the book: #RStats #DataManagement
