DILEMMA
Reproduce or Save Time?
openclipart.com
ALL FOR ONE
divide.R
and.R
conquer.R
the.R
world.R
- Time Saver
- Easier to Debug
- Reproducibility comes at a cost
- Responsible for the code base
ONE FOR ONE
conquer_the_world.R
- Time Consuming
- Hard to Debug
- Reproducible (generally)
- Responsible for one file
~x500
SOLUTION
Use a pipeline tool
- Time Saver
- Keeps tracks of changes
- Supports reproducilibity
SOLUTION
Imperative Scripts
Embrace Functions!
SOLUTION

tar_visnetwork()
SOLUTION
tar_visnetwork()
tar_make()
SOLUTION
Build the pipeline gradually:
- Add target
- Run Pipeline
- Inspect New Targets
- Repeat
