📍 Interesting early-stage project: RQGIS Console An R console integrated directly into QGIS -- letting you write and run R code inside QGIS with full access to your active project (layers, CRS, extent, and metadata). github.com/jsmendozap/rqgis #QGIS #RStats #GIS #Geocomputation #RSpatial

Hey, #RStats folks, what's your take on the box package to organise the code inside a project? I've been using it a bit for a while: I put functions in an R folder similar to a package and then load them with box::use() instead of source(). klmr.me/box

klmr.me

‘box’: Write Reusable, Composable and Modular R Code

A modern module system for R. Organise code into hierarchical, composable, reusable modules, and use it effortlessly across projects via a flexible, declarative dependency loading syntax.
