A Few Claude Skills for R Users – R Works The community has come together to create some great Claude Skills that you can try out today.

I rounded up a few Claude Skills for #RStats users.

Huge thanks to the creators who developed them. They share Skills for everything from tidyverse code to brand.yml files to learning while using AI.

Hope the list is useful, and please let me know what I missed! 🧡

Buenas, Yani, espero que estés bien. Fui uno de los presentadores, y quería comentarte que el pdf del resumen de mi presentación en el repo no se corresponde a la última versión que envié (fuera de plazo). ¿Cómo hago para hacerte llegar (o a la persona indicada) la versión actualizada? Gracias!
