New blog post! The post itself is not particularly interesting, but I am pretty amazed that this works… The people behind #quarto, #quarto-live, and #webr do truly mind-blowing things #rstats

Still fascinated with #webR and its potential for teaching stats

Here students can play (even from their phones) and find out themselves how the p-value depends on sample size

As far as I’m concerned, #webr and #shinylive is indistinguishable from magic.

I can’t believe that since first installing #quarto-webr a few hours ago till now, I’ve gotten a relatively complicated #shinyapp exported, deployed, and running serverless.

This is magic. #rstats

webr-demo AUTHOR: Jeffrey M. Perkel PUBLISHED: December 14, 2023 WEBR STATUS: 🟢 Ready! WebR This document demonstrates the webR package for the #rstats community. Using it, in conjunction with the quarto-webr Quarto extension, allows users to create Quarto documents with code that runs at runtime instead of during document rendering. p <- mtcars |> ggplot(aes(x = wt, y = mpg, color = factor(cyl))) + geom_point(shape = 21) p We can modify this base graph (stored as the variable p), for instance by changing the background from grey to white. p + theme_minimal() Now, replace the text in the previous cell to read: p + labs(title = "Title", x = "Weight", y = "Miles-per-gallon") + theme_minimal() (You can click the clipboard icon at the upper-right of the cell above to copy its text) and click Run Code again.

The Zen of CSS Design was published 20 years ago next week, and I still own my copy.

To mark the occasion, I performed a little CSS magic: modern pseudo-classes add progressive reveal in a WebR learnr tutorial.

The char limit here makes it cumbersome to cross-post.

#RStats #WebR 0.2.2 just dropped & it's ⚡️ fast.

I used it to make the Day 14 entry of #30DayMapChallenge (attached).

Cannot believe {sf} works in-browser.

🐘: mastodon.social/@hrbrmstr/11...

Entry: 30dmc.hrbrmstr.dev/2023/day-14....
So, there's no way I'm gonna get a WPE Drop in today, which means the Bonus Drop will be for all subscribers. What I *can* Drop today is a fully working example of a single-#Quarto doc #RStats #WebR {sf} entry into the #30DayMapChallenge for Day 14 (Europe). What you'll see at the URL (https://30dmc.hrbrmstr.dev/2023/day-14.html) & in the attached is 100% WebR, {sf} & {ggplot2} —apart from a JS fetch() to get the Europe GeoJSON.

Working towards getting the new 0.4.0 release of {quarto-webr} extension out. One new feature is to provide more cell-like options using Quarto's hashpipe.

Some initial options to support:

What kind of behaviour are you looking for? I'm not sure about webR but our Quarto books use webexercises which @debruine.bsky.social developed. I usually randomise the options, but you could sample from a set of questions in a script every time you render: bartlettje.github.io/disseminatio...

To me, code review accompanied by guided explanation for those with limited R knowledge while avoiding setup issues does feel very much like the quarto-webr space at present github.com/coatless/qua... but that is coming from an explanation priority medium not a project priority one.

Never gets old seeing an MCMC sampling routine written in C++ and bridged into R just _running_ in a web browser; much less being able to use it on the package's documentation website.

Ever since the Posit Primers were retired in 2023, I've been looking for a replacement for interactive in-browser #rstats tutorials. Thanks to the magic of webR and {quarto-webr} and the fact that the original primers are open source, I made a new #QuartoPub + webR version! r-primers.andrewheiss.com
Screenshot of a webR-based tutorial for ggplot Screenshot of a webR-based tutorial for dplyr's group_by and summarize Description of how I'm using Quarto tabset panels to recreate learnr tutorials {learnr} progressive reveal One great feature of {learnr} is its progressive reveal, which unhides sections of a tutorial as you work through it. To simulate this with Quarto, I turned to Javascript. My progressive-reveal.js script looks for all third-level headings on a page (similar to {learnr}) and makes the appear progressively using some buttons at the bottom of the page. It’s clunky, but it works. Quizzes {learnr} also supports interactive questions, or inline quiz questions. To simulate this, I use {checkdown}. It’s not as great as {learnr}, but again, it gets the job done
