<p>Curious about package development, but not sure where to start? Have a few packages under your belt but unsure of what to do with them? This workshop is for you! Run by R-Ladies Charlottesville, the goal of this workshop is to empower you to start contributing back to the R ecosystem with package development. We’ll be using materials developed by Hadley Wickham, Jenny Bryan, and Di Cook for the R-Forwards teaching team. <a href="https://forwards.github.io/edu/" class="linkified">https://forwards.github.io/edu/</a></p> <p>By the end of this three-hour workshop, you should know how to:</p> <p>- Make your code into an R package,<br/>- Do collaborative coding with GitHub,<br/>- Write a vignette or an article,<br/>- Write tests, error messages, and documentation, and<br/>- Submit a package to CRAN.</p> <p>Bring your own code that you want to make into a package, or work with our example.</p> <p>Angela Li of R-Ladies Chicago and Samantha Toet of R-Ladies Charlottesville will be co-teaching this workshop. Angela is the R Spatial Advocate at the Center for Spatial Data Science and Samantha is the Partner Marketing Specialist for RStudio.</p> <p>Workshop materials, including a demo package, can be found here: bit.ly/cville_pkg</p> <p>Workshop instructors and participants agree to adhere to the R Consortium and R Community Code of Conduct. <a href="https://wiki.r-consortium.org/view/R_Consortium_and_the_R_Community_Code_of_Conduct" class="linkified">https://wiki.r-consortium.org/view/R_Consortium_and_the_R_Community_Code_of_Conduct</a></p> <p>We will be meeting at Hemoshear Theraputics, located on the 3rd floor of 501 Locust Avenue, in downtown Charlottesville.
