Las personas campeonas de una comunidad son personas que asumen una mayor responsabilidad en el éxito, la sostenibilidad y/o el funcionamiento de una comunidad . 1 rOpenSci desarrolla un programa de campeones y campeonas enfocado y pensado para que participen personas que pertenecen a grupos histórica y sistemáticamente excluidos de las comunidades de software abierto y de software de investigación.
Being a part of the rOpenSci Champion’s program has been a transformative experience, pushing me to explore the world of R package development and contribute to the world of open science. While my initial project proposal took a different route, the unexpected journey led me to create a valuable tool that I am proud to call my own – an R package ChartkickR.
It was 2015, a Political Science master’s student had to process data to hand in his thesis and decided to take the opportunity to learn how to use R. To the long and winding road of the academic requirement was added an extra degree of difficulty: incorporating programming software from scratch, with a somewhat steep learning curve.
One important aspect of rOpenSci’s mission is to build capacity and promote passionate community members who help the open science and open source software community grow and improve. The rOpenSci Champions Program is a unique opportunity for us to identify, recognize, and reward such individuals and support them in their work to improve their communities and the wider ecosystem.
rOpenSci is a nonprofit organization that is funded entirely by grants and donations. These contributions enable us to keep our projects and infrastructure active and accessible to the community. Our projects are dedicated to establishing and upholding both technical and social infrastructure that supports open and reproducible science for all our members.
The R-Universe is used by professionals from different fields, although they all pursue the same objective: to offer their R packages in a simple and accessible way . At rOpenSci we work to provide tools that facilitate access to data and research software generated with good software development practices and in a friendly community.

Maintaining a package can be a lonesome activity, which sometimes poses a problem if you prefer team work or if you encounter a very thorny-for-you problem.Beside belonging to a supportive community of maintainers (like rOpenSci 😉), for collaborative help and commiseration you can try to build a community of contributors around your package!In this post, we’ll explore one tool helping you towards that goal: “help wanted” issues, with which your
Un nuevo artículo de nuestra serie de entrevistas “Conociendo a las estrellas del universo R”. Nuestro objetivo es presentar a los equipos y personas que están detrás del desarrollo de software y paquetes que utilizamos y que están disponibles a través del R-universe. Queremos destacar y explorar diferentes equipos y proyectos de todo el mundo, el trabajo que realizan, sus procesos y usuarios.
