This is the second year that I’m teaching a short session on Open Science and Reproducibility with Quarto, GitHub, and R for students in the European Doctoral School of Demography (EDSD) programme (by @…, INED, EAPS, and others).
This year, I demoed everything in Positron (Posit PBC), switching back to RStudio only occasionally. I also made a point to discuss a…
