TikZ involves a source file, which carries the tex extension the PDF that is generated by your Latex compiler and editor (I use TexStudio) the graphics output file -that could be anything imaginable. R is very friendly to Latex and TikZ through the packages knitr and rmarkdown. How can I use the power of R to organize TikZ related files? While working with Latex and TikZ file I had this question: That makes it easier to build advanced graphics for practically any domain or discipline because you are able to start from code already written. There are hundreds of libraries for TikZ in all scientific fields. TikZ graphics can be built under any LaTex environment for any operating system: Windows, Linux or Mac OS. These object can be very simple or as sophisticated as you want. They don't require mouse and clicks but writing code to connect objects and elements. TikZ is ideal for any kind of publications either websites, blogs, papers, articles, slides, or books because they are portable and reproducible. By having the result (graphic) on a web page, and be able to click on it to see the code, it rapidly helps to make the connection between code and output. Most of the examples are simple enough to encourage anyone to start learning TikZ. This is a repository of the best TikZ examples I have found around the web and from papers, slides, tutorials, and books. All data files for the TikZ examples now live under src/data. The Makefile has been optimized to avoid code repetition.The template file template.Rmd includes now special identifiers so it can be updated with user custom settings that child.Rmd uses to retrieve all graphics and code for each of the examples.The source folder with TikZ files are now only saved in src.The Hugo website through the _build_site.R script also allow some customization.The README.Rmd document now allows to customize variables for the folders.
