Custom Emails with R Markdown and Blastula#

We’re pleased to announce blastula, a package for creating beautiful custom emails in R. At RStudio, we love interactive dashboards, but some situations call for a different communication mechanism. Use blastula to:

Compose custom email bodies based on code, code output, and markdown
Send emails using SMTP servers - even GMail - or integrate with production services like RStudio Connect

Blastula makes it easy to send notifications for everything from anomaly detection to fantasy basketball results, all without leaving R. Please be sure to visit the blastula website to find additional resources.
