docs / pointers for distill v2
jjallaire opened this issue · 7 comments
Hi there, I'm working on a custom R Markdown format for creating articles based on the Distill web framework. Documentation is available here:
https://jjallaire.github.io/distill/
My work is based on the Distill v1 documentation that is published here: https://distill.pub/guide/
It looks like in the meantime there is now a version 2 of Distill, and it appears to include some great new features (table of contents, hoverbox, etc.). Is there equivalent documentation for version 2 of the framework? If not are there some pointers into the source code you could provide that will give me enough context to migrate to v2?
Hi there, I managed to sort this out and have now migrated to v2.
We've also renamed the project so as not to conflict with the existing "Distill" brand (as it connotes both an ML journal that emphasizes clear explanations as well as a set of related publishing tools). Our project is now called "Radix", but still gives prominent linkage/credit to the underlying Distill web framework. Here's the updated website: https://rstudio.github.io/radix/.
Have very much enjoyed working with Distill, you have done a lot of great things to improve technical communications on the web! Very much looking forward to seeing what R users do with these tools.
FYI location of our documentation has moved to: https://radixpub.github.io/radix-r/
Hi @jjallaire, the website you linked to is showing 404. Where is the documentation for v2? I find it confusing that https://distill.pub/guide/ still shows documentation for v1.
Docs are now here: https://rstudio.github.io/distill/ (we renamed back to distill b/c radix conflicted with some other publishing related initiatives we have).
I'm not sure if there are updated core framework docs for v2, as you said the main website links to http://distill.pub/guide/. You might want to post a separate issue re: v2 docs (I don't work on core distill, just the R Markdown format).
