Verify NEWS.md or changelog exists for the package 3. Gather package info: name, version, repository (e.g., "tidyverse/dplyr") 4. Follow the workflow below 5. Use `scripts/get_contributors.R` to generate acknowledgments 6. Reference the appropriate formatting guide for final polish ## Platform Selection This skill supports two blog platforms with different formatting requirements: - **Tidyverse blog** (tidyverse.org) - Uses hugodown - R packages primarily - More rigid structure and conventions - See `references/tidyverse-formatting.md` - **Shiny blog** (shiny.posit.co) - Uses Quarto - R and Python packages - More flexible, feature-focused structure - See `references/shiny-formatting.md` **First, determine which platform the post is for**, then follow the general workflow and apply platform-specific formatting. ## General Workflow These steps apply to both platforms. Content guidelines are based on Tidyverse best practices but adapt them as needed for Shiny posts. ### Step 1: Gather Information Collect required information: - **Platform**: Tidyverse or Shiny blog? - **Package name and version**: e.g., "dplyr 1.2.0" or "shiny 1.9.0" - **Repository**: GitHub repo in "owner/repo" format - **Package language**: R or Python - ...
