Overview

About

Maintained by David KaneCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Create interactive R tutorials that run entirely in the browser using 'Quarto' https://quarto.org and 'WebR' https://docs.r-wasm.org/webr/latest/ via the 'quarto-live' extension. Provides 'learnr'-style authoring conveniences -- scaffolding, exercises, hints, solutions, and quizzes -- without 'Shiny', 'R Markdown', or a server.

Changes in 0.1.3

student_info() and "reflection_editable" questions now have a clear Edit/Submit cycle. Submit locks the fields behind an "Edit" button; Edit reopens them, with the button back to "Submit" and a note that changes aren't saved until then. Previously the fields stayed open after Submit and "Edit" silently resaved, so readers couldn't tell whether a change had gone in. The download now reports only submitted answers, and is blocked until every student_info() form is submitted. **Behaviour change:** a reader who filled in student info without pressing Submit must now press it before downloading.
A Continue button no longer appears directly under a section heading. A subsection that starts right after its parent's heading, as every tutorial.helpers topic does with ## Title then ###, is now revealed with the heading.

Links that leave a tutorial page now open in a new tab, so following one never makes the tutorial disappear.
