Making the page more accessible

Initially, you saw this

But the code behind it is at https://github.com/larsvilhuber/jobcreationblog

Github

Creating a webpage from Github-hosted code

Go into the settings
Tick the box to make it visible
Ensure that you have HTML pages (“Github Pages” does not render Markdown)

settings

Having Github (and some friends) create a webpage

We can go one step further

Have the document be created automatically when we change and commit
- R code would be run “in the cloud” (not on Rstudio.cloud manually)
- automatically!
- See https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/r/ for more details

Challenges

Code needs to be replicable!
- all the dependencies need to be solved in our code
- won't work for paid-for software (Stata, SPSS, SAS)
