An awesome curated list of blogs built using blogdown.
Update: Awesome Blogdown has moved to its own site, awesome-blogdown.com!
The blogdown package for R lets you create static websites using RMarkdown and Hugo. Sites are rendered to static files which simplifies publishing and hosting, at the same time as allowing you to easily version control your site.
If you want to add a site that uses blogdown to this list, please create a pull request with the necessary change. We'll confirm that it's using blogdown and merge the request. If you're not comfortable doing that, find me on twitter and let me know.
The Awesome Blogdown website is driven from a single json file in docs/site.json. Hopefully the file itself is straightforward enough to understand.
The structure is as follows:
{
"name": "the name of the blog",
"url": "https://the.url.of.the.blog.com",
"desc": "A brief description of the blog"
}
Have a look at the file to get an idea of the structure and what's been added for other sites, and then create a pull request with your changes.
The json file containing all the data is served from http://awesome-blogdown.com/sites.json.
If you do end up using it for something, let me know, I'd love to hear about it!
