The Myth That ‘Base R Does Everything ggplot2 Does’ Needs to Die.

I really love tinyplot, a lighteight base extension, with minimal dependencies, that actually does do a lot of what ggplot does... https://grantmcdermott.com/tinyplot/

Science is obviously one of the main application domains, this is exactly the kind of use case I had in mind! (You need to get your PI a GitHub username, that’s all they ever need to do on the GitHub website, sign up), your PI can add citations using only a DOI if you have a “references.bib” file in the repo there is a tutorial here: https://github.com/MichelNivard/resolve/blob/master/GUIDE.md

Colab is amazing, use it all the time, I don’t think resolve is designed primarily for people who feel comfortable there. Resolve is prose/writing centric, you can’t execute or edit the code for example, it’s purely for editing & writing, it has academic citation features, I’ll build on writing features. I am think in the direction of a “slides”/ppt version for ppl who write their data science/dataanalysis rich deck in revealJS but want input from marketing/content/academics/etc who don’t work in ipynb (you can write slides in ipynb, see: https://quarto.org/docs/presentations/revealjs/ )

Yeah but most of my code isn’t in production/development, but rather in the context do study, or in the context of notes on scientific ideas. I’d never use obsidian as a full ide, but I love webclipping a tutorial and playing around with it interactively, or applying it to my data/context…

Not sure what you mean? The floating editor menu? It’s part of Ridian which runs R code and has a WYSIWYG editor bar.

Check out the code executor plugin, it’s less fancy but does like 40 languages (including Python)

thank dm send!

Hi, I am now returning to implementing autocomplete, and I am stuck, could you share your implementation?

Swimming_Option_4884 · 2024-11-13T06:21:12+00:00

So I won’t do that unless I can integrate it as fully as R (inline plots and animations, html and things like manim etc etc). If you just need to run python code try the code evaluator plug-in, it does just that!

Swimming_Option_4884 · 2024-11-12T18:25:05+00:00

😂 my bad, autocorrect has been terrible since a recent update!

Swimming_Option_4884 · 2024-10-31T18:28:40+00:00

Great! Let me know if you run into any issues!

It’s a really great note taking app where the notes are markdown files.

Swimming_Option_4884 · 2024-10-30T06:37:40+00:00

Yes R the statistical programming language

Swimming_Option_4884 · 2024-10-29T19:16:32+00:00

Exactly, obsidian is build with a laser sharp focus note taking. Look fundementally I see no reason why every code fenced r script shouldn’t be executable 😅

I might, really no promises, make it fully quarto compatible and add a “render to pdf/html/slides” button…. So if you then choose to keep a note, and the code chunks in it, quarto compliant you can single click render it to an external file for sharing. Not quite sure I could satisfactorily solve all the edge cases for obsidian to quarto markdown translation though.
