#webR will be a good substitute for the Rshiny server. Using webR, we can execute #Shiny applications entirely on the client side (e.g., the browser), harnessing the client's resources and presenting prospects for scalability. Resource for beginners: lnkd.in/eGJ--33H

CRAN is closing in on 20k #rstats packages! Its a hard number to imagine, how would they look like side by side? Or how many of them have hex stickers?🤔 Why wonder when you can see it instead?😃 anatomyofcode.com/cranmap/

Been having a bit of fun with procedural generation and wavefunction collapse in the past weeks. Decided to make something in #RStats and #shiny since I could not find anything out there. Now I can't stop watching it go🙄 sparktuga.shinyapps.io/shiny… github.com/pedrocoutinhosilv…

I'll admit I was skeptical of #rstudio's investments in Python at first, but speaking to dozens of folks at #rstudioconf2022 has convinced me that one of the best things we can do for #rstats users is to make it easier for them to work with their Pythonista colleagues.
