@sirusb, @ttriche: as contributors of PRs to this package, would you like to be acknowledged as such in the Authors@R field of the DESCRIPTION? You don't need to provide an email address, just a suitable identifier, e.g. first name and last name. For reference, the field currently looks like:

    c(person("James", "Melville", email = "[email protected]", role = c("aut", "cre")),
 

the python umap FAQ mentions a pure R version. you might submit a PR there to point to this pure Julia version too.

Use recordmydesktop for this.
