Summary
As proposed by @jgabry at #738 (comment), this PR documents one way to pre-compile Stan models in a CmdStanR-powered R package.
instantiate
is still in its early days, and I am not sure how to deal with the compiler issues we will inevitably face going forward (c.f. #787, wlandau/instantiate#1). But there are good reasons to pre-compile Stan models in an R package, and this is a start using the modern CmdStan-based tooling.Copyright and Licensing
