We just released a blog post about something I'm very excited about: Great Docs. Post is in the *new* Posit Open Source site:

Great Docs is a #python pkg for creating beautiful Python package websites. We make it easy to use but also give you lots of options.
We’re excited to launch the Posit Open Source website! 🚀
We’ve unified 15+ years of tools, 900+ blogs, and 1,600+ videos in one place.

Huge thanks to the team: @cwick.co.nz Greg Swinehart @hadley.nz @ivelasq3.bsky.social @jeroenjanssens.com
Note: these are still experimental and you might hit some bumps, but bug reports welcome :)
Just released mori 0.1.0 on CRAN — a new R package for shared memory across processes. Parallel R no longer has to mean duplicating your dataset in every worker's RAM.

Even with LLMs, I'm not sure this approach is for everyone. but if you're like me years ago, trying to jam custom JS into R and finding it horrible to develop/maintain, I think it's worth going full web dev and getting all the benefits of proper tooling + unlimited JS libraries on npm
I've been trying this out recently and it works great! simplifies the JavaScript <-> R communication a lot. I've updated my Shiny+React example app to use this, as another example: github.com/glin/shiny-r...
