Daily R Economics 📊

A daily practice repo combining economic data visualization and R learning. One commit per day, no exceptions.

Live site: https://YOUR_USERNAME.github.io/daily-r-econ

Built with Quarto, rendered automatically with GitHub Actions.

Structure

• charts/ - Daily economic visualizations (Brazil, UK, international data) as .qmd files
• til/ - Today I Learned: Quick R snippets as .qmd or .md
• data/ - Curated datasets for quick analysis
• templates/ - Copy-paste templates for fast daily commits
• .github/workflows/ - Auto-rendering with GitHub Actions

The Rules

1. One commit per day minimum - Can be a chart OR a TIL
2. No perfectionism - 10 minutes max, done is better than perfect
3. Auto-renders to website - Push .qmd, get live HTML automatically
