Description

Web-based editing tools often feel sluggish and cumbersome, plus they necessitate an internet connection for access. While browsers excel at displaying online content, they fall short when it comes to content creation. For those dedicated to web writing, a desktop blog editor is essential. If you’re fortunate enough to own a Mac, MarsEdit stands out as both a powerful and stylish option. Its editor allows for seamless transitions between Plain and Rich Text formats, giving you the flexibility to choose your preferred writing style. If you're a fan of Markdown, MarsEdit can not only preview it but also transform it into HTML whenever necessary. You can see your posts in real-time as you write, reflecting exactly how they'll look once published online. A foundational template can be swiftly set up and easily customized as needed. MarsEdit understands the intricacies of featured images, various post formats, and accommodates multiple authors. Additionally, it enables the integration of custom fields that are accessible directly within the post editor. With native filters for Markdown, MultiMarkdown, and Convert Line Breaks, you can enjoy rapid, on-the-fly conversion of your text as you compose. This combination of features makes MarsEdit an invaluable tool for serious web writers.

Description

In this concise guide, we present an R package called blogdown, designed to help you create websites utilizing R Markdown and Hugo. If you have previous experience in website creation, you might wonder about the advantages of using R Markdown and how blogdown sets itself apart from widely used platforms like WordPress. Unlike many traditional options, blogdown generates a static website composed solely of static files, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images, among others. This type of website can be hosted on virtually any web server, as detailed in Chapter 3. Unlike WordPress, it doesn't rely on server-side scripts such as PHP or databases, simplifying the process to just one folder filled with static files. The content of the website is generated from R Markdown documents, but it's worth noting that using R is not mandatory; plain Markdown documents can also be utilized without R code chunks. This approach offers significant advantages, particularly for websites focused on data analysis or programming in R, making it a valuable tool for developers and data scientists alike. As a result, blogdown opens up new possibilities for creating efficient and effective web content.
