tidyverse.org

The tidyverse.org repository contains the source code for the tidyverse website, built using hugodown (not blogdown) and Hugo. It allows contributors to create and publish blog posts and event announcements through a two-step rendering process: hugodown converts R Markdown files to Markdown, then Hugo generates the final HTML.

The repository provides a structured workflow for content creation with helper functions like hugodown::use_tidy_post() for blog posts and automatic live previews via Netlify for every pull request. The hugodown approach cleanly separates R Markdown rendering from site generation, meaning .Rmd files are only rendered when explicitly knitted rather than automatically rebuilt. Contributors can fix small issues directly through pull requests and are encouraged to open issues for larger changes.
