Let me know if you need any help with this or have questions.

P.S. You dont need to run devtools::build_readme() anymore. Should be up-to-date due to the gh-action.

Ohh, any help appreciated. I tried to fix a few things, but the MacOS R CMD check is still failing atm.
First I think we want version 0.0.2 to the main branch, but need to have the R checks working

[mhesselbarth]

Aren't all checks failing at the moment?

Okay, so the general roadmap would be fixing everything on dev (v0.0.2) first and then merging into master?

[mhesselbarth]

I lost a little bit track on what's still to do. Did you say you want to fix the remaining warnings about the documentation ?

[Martin-Jung]

Yes, the main outstanding things are all the documentation warnings durings checks. I tried to fix some every now or then, but it is quite a lot...

[mhesselbarth]

There also are still (or again 😅 ) lots of NAMESPACE warnings about imports/suggests etc...
