Overview

About

Maintained by Nicolas BennettFirst published 2026-08-041 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Persist, restore and manage 'blockr' boards from within a running app. Provides a 'manage_project' plugin for 'blockr.core' that replaces the built-in file upload and download interface with storage backed by the 'pins' package. On 'Posit Connect' each visitor reads and writes pins under their own account, with board sharing, visibility controls and version history.
