<p>
<a href="https://computo-journal.org\&q....uot;>Computo</ is a journal promoting methodological, computational, and algorithmic contributions in statistics and machine learning that provide a better understanding of which models or methods are most appropriate to answer specific scientific questions. Computo leverages modern tools in programming and scientific reporting to support more transparent, interactive, and reproducible research outputs. We&rsquo;re excited to introduce Computo to the rOpenSci community as a complementary road to publishing reproducible research alongside rOpenSci&rsquo;s software peer review initiatives.

Translating the rOpenSci Dev Guide into Portuguese: Collaboration, Community, Challenges, and Impact <p><a href='https://ropensci.org/pt/blog/2....025/11/25/tradu%C3%A it in: Português</a>.</p> <h2>
Introduction
</h2><p>rOpenSci curates packages developed in the R programming language and also offers a well-established <a href="/software-review">peer review process</a> for R packages. To guide this process, rOpenSci created the <strong>rOpenSci Packages: Development, Maintenance, and Peer Review</strong> guide (also known as the &ldquo;Dev Guide&rdquo. The guide presents recommended procedures for developing and submitting packages to the rOpenSci collection, clarifying each step and ensuring transparency throughout the process.</p>
<p>Initially, the Dev Guide was created in <a href="https://devguide.ropensci.org/....\">English&l and later gained a <a href="https://devguide.ropensci.org/....es/index.es.html\&qu version, thanks to a <a href="/blog/2024/03/11/devguide-0.9.0/">community-driven translation effort</a>. More recently, a group of collaborators worked together to translate the Dev Guide into Portuguese. In this post, we describe how this collaborative translation process unfolded, recognizing that translating resources is one way to contribute to rOpenSci’s mission of fostering a culture of open and reproducible research.</p>
