# blogdown

> **Adam Gruer** (@AdamGruer; 0/0): @jdblischak I’m open to all ideas. Copying to temp was the only way I could come up with to keep all the action in the rstudio viewer. I’ve been reading through the source code of blogdown and servr to see if Yihui does it differently but struggling to understand it so far. One consid is  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1073062749360406529)

# bookdown

> **Alison Hill** (@apreshill; 2/0): @PipingHotData @minebocek If possibly no internet connection, I would probably not use xaringan 😰 (you've probably read this: https://t.co/NXTMYq71H4) You technically could, then push to gh pages or Netlify, but you would have to load the page before losing internet, and that is too much stress!

> **Alison Hill** (@apreshill; 1/0): @jvcasill @minebocek @PipingHotData update: I did some reinstalls of all the packages (like to dev versions of rmarkdown/bookdown/etc) and the decktape function does work for me 😍

> **Alison Hill** (@apreshill; 1/0): @PipingHotData @minebocek xaringan does have a self-contained option but I would probably gravitate towards another presentation package like reveal.js https://t.co/6YqieTzoZ7, then put it on a flash drive to present  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1072975778361499648)

> **Christophe Dervieux** (@chrisderv; 1/0): @apreshill @PipingHotData @minebocek Yes self-contained is not a good option here but 1 html file is not the only offline option. If you have everything in a local folder, especially remark.js, no issue. look at https://t.co/tzKQC1jg68 the tricky part is mathjax if you have equation. You'll need to ⬇️ locally too.

Any hand tool to draft long documents with python?  #rstats  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1072912363966341121)

# xaringan

> **Emily Riederer** (@EmilyRiederer; 10/0): @PipingHotData @minebocek @apreshill If you’re having trouble with xaringan, storyboards in flexdashboqrd can also make pretty nice presentations depending on the type of content / message you are trying to convey https://t.co/IC3moe01v0  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1073001289339027456)

> **Mine CetinkayaRundel** (@minebocek; 5/0): @apreshill @PipingHotData An alternative is xaringan (in case there is internet) with pdf backup, I haven’t tried this myself but https://t.co/XmAgghXeQ5 explains how to get a pdf output  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1072984077047947265)

> **Emi Tanaka 🌾** (@statsgen; 3/1): @apreshill @minebocek @PipingHotData I have my xaringan slides set up so it’ll work without internet. I did this so I can work on the plane. You need to make sure you download the relevant js and fonts beforehand though. So if you can get to that stage, in theory it should be okay if you copy the folder over!
