What are the efforts, flexibility and readability when envolving #code and #markdown ? #startingwrite about #rstat #lean and #agile  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951157497028472832)

But now I think some good links are:

which in retrospect would have saved me lots of time.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951045892441759744)

> **Ivan** (@privlko; 1/0): @jamesday87 @plusSixOneblog Im in the process! The blogdown book is a great resource but definitely contains a learning curve  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951080493134606336)

> **Jacquie Tran** (@jacquietran; 1/0): @alicesweeting @jamesday87 @plusSixOneblog I haven't moved from WP to blogdown, but highly recommend blogdown so I think it's worth the pain of migrating!  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951053522623066112)

> **Gordon Shotwell** (@gshotwell; 0/1): @jamesday87 @plusSixOneblog I haven't done this but I would look for how to convert wordpress to markdown, then going from markdown to blogdown is pretty straightforward. Something like this maybe? https://t.co/h32fHxwbVl  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951078787525038080)

# bookdown

> **Ben Marwick** (@benmarwick; 4/1): @gokhan_ciflikli We use bookdown with https://t.co/HXivgDVFOB to help with beautiful PDF output for PhD theses written in #rstats markdown  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951007705644220417)

> **Chris Tufts** (@devlintufts; 0/1): Anyone ever run into this? Using #Rstats #Bookdown - gitbook renders mathjax correctly in chrome on local machine/file, but via github pages doesn't render mathjax on chrome or firefox, but does render on safari.

> **James Goldie** (@rensa_co; 0/0): @gokhan_ciflikli @old_man_chester (Unfortunately, the operative part of the phrase is 'write my thesis', not 'in #bookdown' 😥)  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951217375688343553)

# knitr

> **lionel** (@_lionelhenry; 1/0): @tslumley This has bit us in situations involving knitr. The roundtrip parse → deparse → parse is lossy :/ rlang now has a deparser that does a better job of adding parentheses only when necessary  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951234365039706112)

> **Alex W. Bajcz** (@Fruit_Ecology; 1/0): @kwbroman @datacarpentry @UWMadison Thanks @kwbroman! It was fun, and I enjoyed getting to watch you teach also. You *may* have convinced me to give knitr another shot :).  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951137725796798464)

> **Ingo Rohlfing** (@ingorohlfing; 0/1): @f2harrell @DiegoKuonen @ThomasSpeidel Requires a little bit more typing, but you can use #dplyr https://t.co/UUULdzOhld #rstats Then knitr::kable for polished table?  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951064246347018240)

> **Imke Feldmann** (@TheBIccountant; 0/0): @EscobarMiguel90 That would be a really exotic use case for R: https://t.co/4Zgccug4Jk My function converts text in pdf files into rows and returns them in a table (dataframe): Non-characters are ignored and tables will be converted to rows as well :)  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/951032660964626432)
