pkgs.rstudio.com - RStudio's Open Source R Packages

This is the source repository for the website https://pkgs.rstudio.com. This website is a central place to find Open Source R packages from RStudio.

Idea is that https://pkgs.rstudio.com/<pkgname> will lead you to the pkgdown website of the <pkgname> package.

How it works ?

This website is hosted on Netlify and acts as a central redirect for other pkgdown websites hosted on netlify or other place (like rstudio.github.io).

• Main file is _redirects which contains the list of packages' website to redirect to
• The index.Rmd uses this information to build an index page present all explicit package in a table.

Currently, the url https://pkgs.rstudio.com/ works for:

• A few sets of website hosted on Netlify (mainly the one from the R Markdown Team)
• Any packages hosted on github pages in RStudio organisation, meaning where website is hosted to https://rstudio.github.io/<pkgname>.

How to add a package website in the main table on index page ?

Open a PR to add a rule in _redirect. If the package is not hosted on https://rstudio.github.io, then the index.html will be correctly rebuild when merging the PR.
