This is a template (and tutorial) for creating your website with R Markdown in minutes.
The official document from RStudio can be found here.
-
Make sure that you have the latest versions of R, RStudio and package rmarkdown. I had problems of encoding because of that.
-
Make sure that you have enabled Git in RStudio. More information can be found there.
-
You need a GitHub account.
-
Fork this repo (top-right) and rename it to be 'YOURGITHUB.github.io' (in Settings of your brand new repo).
-
Get the link from cloning the repo. Use the green button "Clone" and make sure you use SSH, not HTTPS. Then, go to RStudio, create a New Project > Version Control > Git and copy this link. You have cloned your new repo as an R project.
-
Build the website by running
rmarkdown::render_site(encoding = "UTF-8")
or justCtrl/Cmd + Shift + B
. -
Commit and push everything from RStudio.
-
Go see your new website at https://prokischlab.github.io/index.html
-
Modify
_site.yml
,index.Rmd
,about.Rmd
,cv.Rmd
andCV.pdf
with your own content. -
Build your website again. At any moment, you can preview your website locally, by rendering your site and viewing any of your local html file in your Web Browser.
-
Commit and push everything from RStudio.
-
Go see your new website with your own content at https://YOURGITHUB.github.io/.
