🔗Abstract / TLDR R-universe now builds WASM binaries of all R packages for use in WebR applications (such as shinylive). For example to test the dev version of dplyr, you can open the WebR demo page and run:install.packages('dplyr', repos = c('https://tidyverse.r-universe.dev', 'https://repo.r-wasm.org')) As explained below, not all R packages are supported yet;
The R-Universe is used by professionals from different fields, although they all pursue the same objective: to offer their R packages in a simple and accessible way . At rOpenSci we work to provide tools that facilitate access to data and research software generated with good software development practices and in a friendly community.
The latest version of the opencv R package can detect and decode QR codes!# Install latest opencvinstall.packages("opencv", repos = "https://ropensci.r-universe.dev") There are two ways of using this: the ocv_qr_detect function tries to find the QR in an image file.

Thanks to some help from George Stagg, we added experimental support for building WebAssembly binary packages. This makes it possible to install packages in webr, directly from the R-universe.
Maintaining a package can be a lonesome activity, which sometimes poses a problem if you prefer team work or if you encounter a very thorny-for-you problem.Beside belonging to a supportive community of maintainers (like rOpenSci 😉), for collaborative help and commiseration you can try to build a community of contributors around your package!In this post, we’ll explore one tool helping you towards that goal: “help wanted” issues, with which your
A new post of our interview series “Meeting the stars of the R-universe”. We aim to introduce the teams and people behind the development of software and packages many of us use and which are available through the R-Universe. We want to highlight and explore different teams and projects around the world, the work they do, their processes and users.
