Flipbooks
summary
A new R workflow called flipbookr parses a code block and auto reconstructs incremental partial builds so code and output appear side by side as a stop action movie; the demo builds a flipbook in five minutes using RMarkdown/Xaringan and ggplot2 (demo uses a tidyverse dialect called slow ggplot). Controls include auto breaks by balanced parentheses or user breaks via a BREAK comment, non‑sequential and integer repeat breaks, display options (code, output, or both), left assignment tracking, base R support, and website output with GIF export planned.
