Over the weekend, I continued working on my new tutorial for setting up a dockerized 🐳 R development environment on VScode 💻.

➡️ https://github.com/RamiKrispin/vscode-r

Completed:
✅ R settings
✅ Motivation/intro
✅ Scope
✅ Prerequisites/Requirements

⚠️WIP 🚧:
➡️ Getting Started with Docker
➡️ Docker with R - the Hard Way
➡️ Setting R Environment with Docker

Are you interested in how dependency-heavy your (or another) package is and why? https://github.com/jokergoo/pkgndep #rstats

Using fonts in R graphics can be tricky at times. {showtext} aims to make it easier: https://cran.rstudio.com/web/packages/showtext/vignettes/introduction.html #rstats #dataviz #ggplot

Need some data to test a plot idea or algorithm? On https://drawdata.xyz/ you can draw the data you want... #rstats #synthetic #dataviz

Do you want to visualize specific trends or patterns in your data? Try plotting a subset of your data in R!

Here are some examples:
🚀 Plot a subset of the mtcars dataset that contains only cars with a horsepower of greater than 150.
🚀 Plot a subset of the iris dataset that contains only setosa flowers.
🚀 Plot a subset of the mpg dataset that contains only cars from the United States.

I encourage you to try plotting a subset of your data in R.

Sometimes you get data in less than optimal format, e.g. as a png of a figure 😭... In that case https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/metaDigitise/vignettes/metaDigitise.html might be the rescue. #rstats #ohno #datawrangling

Find the best contrast between one color and a list of options, e.g. for labels in geom_tile: {prismatic::best_contrast()} https://emilhvitfeldt.github.io/prismatic/reference/best_contrast.html #rstats #dataviz #ggplot #colors

Today I learned how to use Pagès’s awesome {DelayedArray} @bioconductor package to handle gene expression data stored in parquet files. https://tomsing1.github.io/blog/posts/parquetArray/ This way, I can leverage familiar R tools and take
advantage of the language-agnostic parquet file format, querying very large gene expression datasets. Do you have experience with parquet files for biological data - please share the lessons you have learned! #til #parquet #rstats #duckdb #bioconductor

My thesis student is about to defend her master thesis. So she got me a gift. I'm honoured, this will be on my desk until I retire.

@jonthegeek @jonocarroll Thanks a lot for pointing out DOP - a new concept for me 📚 . I am watching one of Yehonathan Sharvit's presentations https://youtu.be/zSHvEAKLFJw?si=POZ-LbbfATzl13Za&t=1851 right now. It seems that he is fine with data classes (& validators) - as long as other code is not part of the same class? Perhaps #rstats' unusual way of defining methods outside of the class definitions (S3, S4 and S7) is already DOP inspired/adjacent? 🤔

Do you need better performance than what the standard #tidyverse functions have? {collapse} might be worth a look: https://sebkrantz.github.io/collapse/ #rstats #optimization

Dedicate the long weekend to work on a tutorial I wanted to do a long time ago - setting an R development environment with VScode and Docker ❤️.

Will use this repo for the tutorial (WIP) 👇🏼
