> **Ariel Muldoon** (@aosmith16; 1/1): I love that I can use Ctrl + Alt + I to split an existing chunk in two as well as insert new chunks. It's working great for converting a draft blog post into an actual blog post! #rmarkdown #rstats

> **John Stewart** (@JohnStewartPhD; 1/0): @colinmadland @RyanStraight @KavuBob @hibbittsdesign Aesthetically, I like bookdown best of the options I’ve looked at. But I think the md Grav workflow Colin is using might be lowest bar for forking.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1142191622194696194)

Will play with grav and bookdown as options. Hax also.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1141921338619322368)

> **Yihui Xie** (@xieyihui; 1/0): @j0h0w `self_contained: true` has been the biggest drawback of xaringan: https://t.co/K3aDybrSjI I'll try to imporve it in future: https://t.co/iCTdqQW91D For now, perhaps exporting to PDF via pagedown::chrome_print() helps a bit if you want a single file: https://t.co/59rE42DTfB  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1141448949930348551)

> **Nicholas Tierney** (@nj_tierney; 23/1): After a nice suggestion from @grrrck re @xieyihui 's way to generate verbatim code chunks (https://t.co/P8QE2YPVfY) I thought, how cool would it be to type `verbatim = TRUE` instead?

> **Dr. Ryan "It's Summer Break" Straight** (@RyanStraight; 3/1): @colinmadland @JohnStewartPhD @KavuBob @hibbittsdesign RStudio uses Pandoc to convert from Rmd to md to HTML/PDF/whatever, using the Knitr package. Super quick and efficient, especially with large documents. No command line stuff, just hitting the Knit button. :) Hooray for YAML/TOML!

> **Tinashe M. Tapera** (@TaperaTinashe; 3/0): Alternately, I always start off with an .Rmd to encourage literate programming and force myself to follow narrow, achievable goals, even if it’s a small handful of operations. I then use knitr::purl() to strip all of the markdown and generate an executable R script. https://t.co/EEIztL34Jo  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1141811258389348363)

# xaringan

> **Emma Rand** (@er13_r; 4/1): @LittleMissData @kierisi I'm giving a "An Introduction to Reproducible

> **Alison Hill** (@apreshill; 2/1): @EvaMaeRey @benmarwick @espinielli I don't think similar capabilities exist (I believe the functionality builds on inherent pandoc functions, which xaringan does not call). For xaringan, I do use template slides a lot to reduce repetition: https://t.co/26QgaZqWol  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1143512566619971587)

I'm wondering too, if there is a way to use this behavior with #xaringan. I want to use markdown syntax in fig captions in xaringan too.   Seems like (ref:foo) doesn't work.  Another way?
