Welcome to the new (October 2017) website for the rOpenSci project. Our old website (repo, site) is now archived and all new content should be added to this repository. For any issues with the site including typos or rendering issues, please file an issue or send a pull request. The site automatically deploys once pull requests are merged.
To contribute a blog post or tech note (🙏), first get the go-ahead and a tentative publication date from our community manager Stefanie Butland.
Please refer to our in-progress gitbook "rOpenSci Blog Guidelines for Authors and Editors". There we coach you in thinking through what you might say in your post (Content Guidelines) and suggest a workflow with templates, a checklist, and advice on incorporating commonly used elements (Technical Guidelines).
Briefly, the process is:
- Fork the repository (repo) of the rOpenSci website.
- Draft your post in R Markdown or Markdown and create or update your author metadata.
- Preview and refine your post locally.
- Submit via pull request and preview your post.
- A blog editor reviews your post.
- Revise your post in response to review.
- Enjoy having your work promoted.
For other website issues and updates, see developer-notes.
The rOpenSci project is a fiscally sponsored project of NumFOCUS and based at the University of California, Berkeley. The project is funded by grants from various public and private institutions and from donations.
