To generate Rmarkdown output, you will need to install Pandoc and two R packages:
Pandoc is a stand-alone software that you will install outside of R. Follow installation instructions for your operating system
To install the rmarkdown
package from within R (it may take a few minutes):
# Install from CRAN
install.packages('rmarkdown', dependencies=T)
Install the tinytex
package from within R if you donʻt have LaTeX already. TinyTeX is a good option if you only want LaTeX for markdown (https://yihui.name/tinytex/) as it is a very lightweight version and available as an R package:
install.packages('tinytex')
tinytex::install_tinytex() # install TinyTeX
Rmarkdown also comes with Rstudio, and you can use Rstudio after the Bootcamp.
