So I started work on &#8220;Prism Skeleton&#8221;, which is an R Markdown template that has most of the features you would expect and some new ones, plus uses Prism and Fira Sans\/Code. You can try it out on your own if you use <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/hrbrmstr\/markdowntemplates\"><code>markdowntemplates<\/code>?<\/a> but the &#8220;production&#8221; version is likely going to eventually go into the <code>firasans<\/code> package. (I use <code>markdowntemplates<\/code> as a playground for R Markdown experiments.)<\/p>\n<p>The source for the <code>iframe<\/code> at the end of this document is here: <a href=\"https:\/\/rud.is\/dl\/hello-dorling.Rmd\">https:\/\/rud.is\/dl\/hello-dorling.Rmd<\/a>. There are some notable features (I&#8217;ll repeat a few from above):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fira Sans for headers and text<\/li>\n<li>Fira Code for all monospaced content (including source code)<\/li>\n<li>No jQuery<\/li>\n<li>No Bootstrap (it uses the &#8216;Skeleton&#8217; CSS framework)<\/li>\n<li>No HighightJS (it uses the &#8216;Prism&#8221; highlighter)<\/li>\n<li>Extended YAML parameters (more on that in a bit)<\/li>\n<li>Defaults to <code>fig.retina=2<\/code> and the use of <code>optipng<\/code> or <code>pngquant<\/code> for PNG compression (so it expects them to be installed &#8212; ref <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zevross.com\/blog\/2017\/06\/19\/tips-and-tricks-for-working-with-images-and-figures-in-r-markdown-documents\/\">this post by Zev Ross<\/a> for more info and additional image use tips)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><em>&#8220;What&#8217;s this about &#8216;Dorling&#8217;?&#8221;<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Oh, yes.

It&#8217;s a small package to make it easier to create Dorling cartograms based on previous work by @datagistips.<\/p>\n<h3><em>&#8220;You said something about &#8216;extended YAML&#8217;?&#8221;<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Aye. Here&#8217;s the YAML excerpt from the <a href=\"https:\/\/rud.is\/dl\/hello-dorling.Rmd\">Dorling Rmd<\/a>:<\/p>\n<pre>\n---\ntitle: \"Hello, Dorling!

Remove <code>navlink<\/code> and no bar will be there.<\/p>\n<p>The <code>og<\/code> section is for <a href=\"http:\/\/ogp.me\/\">open graph<\/a> tags and you customize them how you like. Open graph tags make it easier to share posts on social media or even Slack since they&#8217;ll auto-expand various content bits.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a custom <code>footer<\/code> (exclude it if you don&#8217;t want one) that can take multiple <code>content<\/code> sub-elements.<\/p>\n<p>The goal isn&#8217;t so much to give you a 100% usable R Markdown template but something you can clone and customize for your own use. Since this example shows how to use custom fonts and a different code highlighter (which meant using some custom <code>knitr<\/code> hooks), it should be easier to customize than some of the other ones in the template playground package. FWIW I plan on adapting this for a work template this week.<\/p>\n<p>The other big customization is the use of Prism with a dark theme. Again, you can clone + customize this at-will but I may add config options for all Prism themes at some point (mostly if there is interest).<\/p>\n<h3>FIN<\/h3>\n<p>(Well, almost <em>fin<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>Kick the tyres on both the new template and the new package and drop suggestions here for the time being (until I get fully transitioned to a new git-hosting platform). One TODO for <code>spdorling<\/code> is to increase the point count for the circle polygons but I&#8217;m sure folks can come up with enhancement requests to the API after y&#8217;all have played with it for a while.<\/p>\n<p>As noted a few times, the Rmd example with the Dorling cartograms is below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%; height:800px;\" src=\"https:\/\/rud.is\/rpubs\/hello-dorling.html\" seamless><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NOTE: There is some iframed content in this post and you can bust out of it if you want to see the document in a full browser window.
