> **Jack Bailey** (@PoliSciJack; 1/0): @Jan_Berz Oh, sweet. I don't at the moment, but I'm tempted just to rely on the TinyTex R package if I can.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1244994913613348864)

> **Alessandro Gasparini** (@ellessenne; 1/0): @wbrentthorne @gr_papageorgiou @graemeleehickey I need to seriously have a look into that! However this was a plain LaTeX project, but my understanding is that tinytex is a standalone TeX distribution too?  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1243469915182567425)

> **Greg Papageorgiou** (@gr_papageorgiou; 1/0): @ellessenne @graemeleehickey Not sure if that helps, but if you use Rstudio to write latex, package tinytex https://t.co/LvyilQLcYB helps as lot in installing all missing packages during compilation of Rmd files  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1243246959596576773)

# xaringan

> **Elena Dudukina** (@evpatora; 4/2): Using new tools 🛠 For this presentation I used #rstats xaringan. I can’t say I spent little time preparing slides, but I was happy with the final result and not copy pasting ☠️ from the descriptive table, but instead using dplyr and %&gt;% to show and highlight the relevant info 👌  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1242857629753507844)

> **Elena Dudukina** (@evpatora; 3/1): Just in case and for fun, I converted my xaringan to .pdf with pagedown::chrome_print() making sure I have all the fonts I used from xaringanthemer locally installed. #rstats #phdchat https://t.co/3H4c9aPsGY  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1242857641417809921)

> **Paul Julian PhD** (@SwampThingPaul; 2/1): Just started using the xaringan #rstats package/template and I'm completely blown away. If your on the fence about building presentations in R try xaringan. There is a slight learning curve but it's worth it!! https://t.co/hnpQK6GRf5  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1243165657665015809)

> **Phil Chodrow** (@PhilChodrow; 1/0): Hey @djnavarro! The gorgeous slides on your "Robust Tools"  website single-handedly motivated me to learn @xieyihui's xaringan package for #rstats. I'm about to speak at a conference with the most beautiful slides I've ever made, using light modifications of your css. Thank you!!

> **Matthew Hendrickson** (@mjhendrickson; 1/0): @statsgen @rstatstweet While I think xaringan looks amazing, I had something come up and don't have the time to get the presentation converted. But I'm still keeping an eye on this for the future. Thanks again!  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1243003195992965120)
