#### The website
This website is generated with pkgdown
. That means we don't have to write any html: content is pulled together from documentation in the code, vignettes, Markdown files, the package DESCRIPTION
and _pkgdown.yml
settings. If you know your way around pkgdown
, you can propose a file change to improve documentation. If not, report an issue and we can point you in the right direction.
Functions are described as comments near their code and translated to documentation using roxygen2
. If you want to improve a function description:
R/
directory in the code repository.#'
).Care to fix bugs or implement new functionality for RGCCA? Awesome! 👏 Have a look at the issue list and leave a comment on the things you want to work on. See also the development guidelines below.
