My name is Jonathan Kitt.

I'm a lab technicien currently working on Wheat genomics in the Genetics, Diversity and Ecophysiology of Cereals lab in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne.

In the last years, my work has been mainly focused on data analysis using the R langage :

• 🧹 cleaning and preparing data
• 🔎 data analysis
• 📊 creating visuals to share results

I post from time to time on my personal blog.

I mainly code in R, but recently started learning Python.

I use git for version control, with GitHub for personal work and GitLab for my academic work.

When coding in R, I use RStudio. Since I started learning Python, I've started using VSCode.

         

Passionate about R, keeping up to date with new packages, and everything related to the {tidyverse}, I started back in 2022 a coding club in my research lab, for which I wrote workshop tutorials (in french) :

• Installing R and RStudio
• First steps with R
• Data wrangling with the {tidyverse}
• Dataviz using {ggplot2}
• Reporting with RMarkdown
• Introduction to git

What I really appreciate about the R community is being able to find and give some help, and get inspiration from what other coders share. I contributed to correcting typos in the following online books :

• R for Data Science, 2nd edition
• Computational Genomics with R

As a fan of the Dr Who TV Series, I created the {datardis} package, which contains details about the episodes. The package is available on CRAN.

I also contributed to the following packages :

• {werpals} : palettes inspired by Disney and nature.
• {datefixR} : Standardize dates in different formats or with missing datas
