Google Season of Docs 2022 #31

Open hturner opened 2 years ago

hturner commented 2 years ago

This year, the R project involvement in Google Season of Docs is likely to be more related to R development - probably further work on the R Development Guide.

There is a separate GitHub org for this: https://github.com/rstats-gsod/gsod2022 but noting here as we consider it an RCWG task and will discuss it at group meetings.

Hi @Athene-ai, I'm one of the two people actively working on GSOD but you can propose improvements to the guide https://github.com/r-devel/rdevguide.
I'm currently working on adding installation instructions from R source code. It would be helpful (to me) if you could check that they are easy to follow.

Athene-ai commented 1 year ago

@llrs I have just checked .. And for me it is fine

mmaechler commented 1 year ago

does "fine" mean that you've followed the instructions and succeeded in getting a work version of R, e.g., the development version of today, correctly running on your computer?

Athene-ai commented 1 year ago

yes

Thanks @Athene-ai! It might help to know more details of your set-up (e.g. operating system)

Athene-ai commented 1 year ago

@MichaelChirico I am running R on Windows 7 professional
