- You may need to move the div's with class="col-md-6" around inside the div's with class="row" to balance the multi-column layout.

This is the other place where people frequently make mistakes, so please preview your site before committing, and make sure to run 'tools/check' as well. {% endcomment %}
To participate in this workshop, you will need access to a computer with R and various geospatial software packages installed. See below for detailed installation instructions. In addition, you will need an up-to-date web browser.
We maintain a list of common issues that occur during installation as a reference for instructors that may be useful on the Configuration Problems and Solutions wiki page.
R is a programming language that is especially powerful for data exploration, visualization, and statistical analysis. To interact with R, we use RStudio.
Install R by downloading and running this .exe file from CRAN. Also, please install the RStudio IDE. Note that if you have separate user and admin accounts, you should run the installers as administrator (right-click on .exe file and select "Run as administrator" instead of double-clicking). Otherwise problems may occur later, for example when installing R packages.
Install R by downloading and running this .pkg file from CRAN. Also, please install the RStudio IDE.
You can download the binary files for your distribution
from CRAN. Or
you can use your package manager (e.g. for Debian/Ubuntu
run sudo apt-get install r-base
and for Fedora run
sudo dnf install R
). Also, please install the
RStudio IDE.
You will need to have additional geospatial software packages installed on your computer to use R with geospatial data. Please follow the detailed installation instructions for your preferred operating system.
