We discussed plans for 2018 as a group. Below are notes from the discussion

Ideas on content to cover in the meetups

  • trivia
  • short package intro and go through vignette with some extensions
  • go through datasets from different industries

  • people can ask questions (ask a few days before) so that they can be addressed during the meetup

  • Topics of interest:
    • github
    • docker/rocker
    • setting up RStudio/Shiny in cloud (AWS, google cloud etc.)
    • Markdown/knitr
  • Participate in hackathons

  • What folks want from the group:
    • See different things
