@rOpenSci Even outside the events such as this mini-hackathon, feel free to reach out to me for a video call to work on any of my packages if you are interested. Issues for #rJavaEnv ( https://github.com/search?q=label%3Aro-hackathon-2025+repo%3Ae-kotov%2FrJavaEnv+&type=issues ) and for #spanishoddata ( https://github.com/search?q=label%3Aro-hackathon-2025+repo%3ArOpenSpain%2Fspanishoddata+&type=issues ). #rstats

Earlier this week, I had a great time as an #rstats package maintainer and mentor at the @rOpenSci mini-hackathon for first time contributors. Enrique Mondragon Estrada made a pull request to add a new feature to #rJavaEnv for reproducible Java environment setup for Java-dependent R packages.

#rJavaEnv and #r5r #rstats downloads periodically see bumps in daily downloads. Someone somewhere is conducting a workshop on #accessibility...?

#r5r: https://ipeagit.github.io/r5r/

#rJavaEnv: https://www.ekotov.pro/rJavaEnv/

I found #spanishoddata ( https://ropenspain.github.io/spanishoddata/ ) on this fancy hex sticker t-shirt by @schochastics ( https://datasci.social/@schochastics@fosstodon.org/113386903579060571 ) . #rJavaEnv ( https://www.ekotov.pro/rJavaEnv/ ) must be on the back. Fun thing you can do this weekend is try to find your #rstats package. Full size source img: https://github.com/schochastics/hexshirt/blob/main/hexmap_original.png

#rstats since it's release is early-mid September 2024 #rJavaEnv (ekotov.pro/rJavaEnv/) is averaging 500+ downloads per month. It's your trusty companion for #r5r, #RSelenium, #openNLP and 100+ other #Java dependent packages. Install Java in one line of code + use with #targets #ReproducibleResearch

#rstats It's great to see the impact #rJavaEnv is already making, just few months after it's release. It is already suggested by the very new #photon package for offline privacy preserving geocoding by a @GESIS researcher https://github.com/JsLth/photon #ComputationalSocialScience

#urbantransitions2024 8.30am, people setting up posters. I think mine is in the best spot. A snapshot with my workflow using #rstats #r5r, #targets, my own #rJavaEnv https://www.ekotov.pro/rJavaEnv/ , and #mlr3 is all I can share right now online, for details you have to be here in person)
