To generate Rmarkdown output, you will need to install Pandoc and two R packages:

Pandoc

Pandoc is a stand-alone software that you will install outside of R. Follow installation instructions for your operating system

Rmarkdown

To install the rmarkdown package from within R (it may take a few minutes):

# Install from CRAN
install.packages('rmarkdown', dependencies=T)

TinyTeX (LaTeX)

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.
