This repository contains a standardised template project directory that can be used to manage statistical/data science consultation projects. This approach provides a streamlined work-flow by removing repetitive administrative processes. A standardised work-flow also facilitates collaboration within cross-functional teams. This project structure is identical and successful for both simple and large-scale projects.
Although this work-flow has been developed in R (based on the ProjectTemplate package), the broader principles discussed here are applicable to any scripting language and non-coding projects alike.
Each directory in this template project has a README.md file that briefly describes its intended purpose. Further information about this template project structure can be found here.
Further information about configuring automation via. ProjectTemplate can be found in <config/README.md>.
