page <- function(...) { content <- tag_list( doctype(), tags$html(), tags$head( tags$meta( charset = "utf-8" ) ), tags$body( tags$main( class = "main", ..., ), ), ) render(content) } home_ui <- function() { content <- tags$div( tags$h3("hello, world"), tags$p("trailing commas, yeeey!"), tags$small("hypertext 1.2.0"), ) page(content) }

{hypertext} 1.2.0 is out on CRAN.

we've added support for trailing commas in tags. quite a small feature but makes for great UX.

it's a specific type of sadness i can't find words for.

Hey #rstats world. Before I write something, is there anything out there to discover database table relationships from a large body of production sql (1000+ queries)? I have a largeish undocumented data warehouse (700 tables, 28k cols).

let's just say she switched from tidyverse to base R. different style, same language.

{hypertext} 1.1.0 is out on CRAN.
many new features, the most important is probably creation of custom tags via, well, `tag()`.
