I’m excited about serving a shiny app from it!

This is so useful! Thanks for sharing

Oh my!

You choose your own model - I find sonnet very good for R. I have never managed to get the completions to work, just use it in the chat/agentic mode

We built a very simple chatbot using shinychat and ellmer and a prompt containing all our quarto blog posts, publication dates and the published url. The large context window of the Gemini models helped a lot! It was very low effort thanks to the great packages but very well received.

This will be so useful!

Very useful guide!

A few things I've been working on lately:

elmer, elmer.tidyverse.org, is a new package to make it easier to work with LLMs (hosted and local) from #rstats. It includes helps for structured data extraction and tool calling, and an easy way to upload a plot. Joint work with Joe Cheng.

R/Pharma R/Pharma. The conference for all things R related in the Pharma industry

#rinpharma has just kicked off, great line up! rinpharma.com

We've got a brand new, baby website for Positron! Take a look if you are interested in getting started, and please let us know how it goes:
