Would certainly be useful (although I'd probably wait until the next version of rig is released)! I was starting being a bit lost between all these projects so this was helpful

@etiennebacher.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 8:06 PM

FYI rig gained project management features in the latest version: rig.r-lib.org/proj-guide.h...

I also see a bunch of activity in the dev version as well but I suppose there will be some announcement later about that

Relevant section in the tidy design guide: design.tidyverse.org/dots-prefix....

You can specify cran=TRUE for that

#rstats new blog post!

"Snapshotting error messages", where I explain why I think all testthat::expect_error() should be replaced by testthat::expect_snapshot(error = TRUE), and where I present an easy, automated way to do this transition.
