R now has pkg2HTML to serve them. But CRAN wants to link the documentation well. Among other issues (accessibility, links to Bioc..) there are ~300 packages that mention some code reference but not from which specific package. The idea is to document that so the links can be resolved to a single package.one example: instead of a link to %&gt;% document your link as magrittr::`%&gt;%` (as it is reexported in other packages) 2024-08-06T22:19:03+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfhr0k3fj5ja8pettach46l0vs6gu24a7cjxxg9x3052x54e8sa0czyzu2d0a2c4r4jsvjuzxqmt8pxq5t3h3rupypq02ht66qvr8ry7zms8agdh9 You can improve CRAN with these 9 tricks 😉<br/><br/>As it has been discussed these days at #rstats there is much to improve #CRAN, both technically and non-technically.
