Authorea is a collaborative writing platform for researchers and has some nice features such as:
- Authorea can easily be linked with an existing GitHub account.
- Authorea's instant search to locate a reference by author, keyword, or DOI makes it very easy to add references.
- Authorea understands (rich) text, markdown, html and latex
- Text, markdown, html and latex can be mixed in the same manuscript.
It seems that Authorea has the potential to at least partly solve the Workflow for publications using Rmarkdown with users that won't get passed Word/Google docs issue.
I decided to try it out. This repository is linked to this Authorea document and it documents my first experience with Authorea and how it can be linked to R. This is work in progress.
