35  Write GitHub Issues

  1. GitHub Issues: a quick tutorial
  2. Example of a long issue thread (just scan this to see how issues on GitHub can be used)
  3. Optional: reprex R Package (this could be helpful when trying to illustrate a bug or problem)

GitHub is much more than simply storage in the cloud. It can be used to collaborate and communicate. Making feature requests or pointing out bugs in software is a common use of the GitHub Issues feature.

First, find two other student’s compiled files in their repository for a previous week’s Case Study or task and provide feedback using the issues feature in GitHub. If they already have two student written issues find a different student to critique. You should mention things they could do to improve their visualization (or code).

In I-learn, submit 2 URL’s: one URL link to each of the issues you wrote in someone else’s GitHub repository.
