🥳 When did that happen! 🎉 Our package bsvarSIGNs has just reached 5K downloads! 🚀 Thank you and stay with us! #rstats #bsvarSIGNs

Giovanni has just issued a package on scenario analysis based on our bsvars and bsvarSIGNs packages 🤩 check it out! 🎉

People are saying 🤩

🚀 When did that happen?! ✨ Packages bsvars and bsvarSIGNs have reached 2️⃣0️⃣K downloads on CRAN! Thank you so much, everybody! ❤️💛 bsvars.org #bsvars.org #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #rstats #econsky

🦘bsvars.org design concept pt. 4 🐨 🐋 Once you work with Bayesian structural dynamic non-linear system modelling everything takes a while! So, we delegate EVERYTHING to much faster C++ code! 🦈 🌐 bsvars.org #bsvars.org #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #cpp #rstats

🖤 bsvars.org design concept pt. 3 💜 ⭐ We use RcppArmadillo for linear algebra because we found it very fast on matrix operations and RNGs, well-documented, easy to use in packages. We 🖤 it! Seriously! 🌐 bsvars.org #bsvars.org #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #Rcpp #RcppArmadillo #rstats

⭐ We implemented C++ code using Rcpp and could not be more glad about that! It's a fantastic facility with many functionalities. ✨ And @eddelbuettel.com is answering all Rcpp questions the following Canadian morning, which is so great! 🌐 bsvars.org #bsvars.org #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #Rcpp #rstats

🚀 in the nearest posts we'll present the design concept behind the R packages 📦 @bsvars 🚀 Our driving principle was: SPEED and CONVENIENCE 🚄 🏪 Stay tuned for more! #bsvars.org #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #rstats

🚀 Exciting news! 😎 Our package bvarPANELs becomes bpvars! 👀 More updates coming up soon! #bpvars #bsvars.org

Check out our presentation about 🌟 bsvars.org design concept ✨ 🌐 bsvars.org/2025-06-iifo... #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #rstats #Rpackages

I've prepared a cool figure of @bsvars packages cumulative downloads timeline, so I'm sharing 💝💖 bsvars.org #rstats #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs

New exciting developments are coming up soon in the bsvars.org space! 💖💛 A vignette on arxiv comes first 🌟 arxiv.org/abs/2410.15090 #rstats #bsvars #econsky

Hey, thanks @econmaett.bsky.social for this question! It got me thinking, but here's my answer: 1. My packages are research driven (esp bsvars that is based on my research). This means that I'm looking for the most efficient and problem-specific samplers and algorithms. 👇 #rstats #econsky

This is how we do it!

Uuu! Have a look at what's coming up next in the R package bsvars 💝💖 I have received really a lot of messages from users asking about or requesting this feature and here it comes! 💘 For all models ❤️💛 github.com/bsvars/bsvar... #bsvars #rstats #econsky

This is so cool!✨ Historical decomposition in the bsvars ❤️💛 and bsvarSIGNs 🖤💜 packages are fixed now by @adamwang15.bsky.social! 🐛 github.com/bsvars/bsvar... #rstats #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #cooperation #econsky

Luis asked why have I chosen to develop packages for Bayesian SVARs in R. This is why: 💝 I really like the format of R packages how it’s standardised and checked at the CRAN assuring quality. 👇 #rstats #bsvars #bsvarSIGNs #foss #econsky

What a summer! It's been happening in the bsvars.org verse! 3. Something really interesting is coming up! 🖤🎀 #bsvarSIGNs #bsvars #foss #rstats #econsky

What a summer! It's been happening in the bsvars.org verse! 2. Tomasz @tomaszwozniak gave four presentations during his Polish tour! So, if you're keen on reading about some good macroeconometrics in Polish, that's it! #bsvarSIGNs #bsvars #foss #econsky #rstats

What a summer! It's been happening in the bsvars.org verse! 1. the bsvarSIGNs package reached 2K downloads! YAY! and Thank you! 🖤🎀 And there's already more! #bsvarSIGNs #bsvars #foss #econsky
