Episode 34: Enriching the Next Generation of R-Core Development




The R-Podcast show

Summary: <p>The R-Podcast has risen again! After sharing the story of my R adventures since the last episode, we focus on a very important initiative that could pave the way for the next generation of developers contributing to the future of R itself. I am joined by research software engineer Heather Turner and statistician Saranjeet Kaur Bhogal to share the story of how the new R Development Guide brings a new and accessible approach for learning how to contribute to the R project itself, along with their vision of the upcoming Collaborative Campfires to inspire and grow the community around this imporant effort.</p> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li>Update on the RWeekly and 2021 Reflections: <a href="https://rweekly.fireside.fm/70" rel="nofollow">https://rweekly.fireside.fm/70</a> </li> <li>Collaboration Campfires: <a href="https://contributor.r-project.org/events/collaboration-campfires" rel="nofollow">contributor.r-project.org/events/collaboration-campfires</a> </li> <li>R Contribution Working Group: <a href="https://contributor.r-project.org/working-group" rel="nofollow">contributor.r-project.org/working-group</a> </li> <li>R Development Guide: <a href="https://contributor.r-project.org/rdevguide" rel="nofollow">contributor.r-project.org/rdevguide/</a> </li> <li>Digital Infrastructure Icubator: <a href="https://incubator.codeforscience.org/cohort" rel="nofollow">incubator.codeforscience.org/cohort</a> </li> </ul> <h3>Feedback</h3> <ul> <li>Email the show: <code>thercast[at]gmail.com</code> </li> <li>Use the R-Podcast contact page: <a href="https://r-podcast.org/contact" rel="nofollow">https://r-podcast.org/contact</a> </li> </ul>
