Notes to developers
The files in the docs directory are the live contents of the RMINR website. The files are a mix of .md and .html. If you change the .md files, the live contents of the site changes. Use .md when possible, see below if you need to use RMarkdown.
The .html files are knitted from the .Rmd files in the src directory. Do not change the .html files directly. Instead, change the .Rmd files, knit them and copy the resulting .html file into the docs directory.
How to knit
The RStudio IDE supports knitting through its GUI.
You can also knit from the R command line, using the rmarkdown package:
render('irr.Rmd', 'all')
Emacs users
RMarkdown documents are suported in Emacs through the MELPA package poly-R. In Emacs, you may need to add the following to your init.el file:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rmd" . poly-markdown+R-mode))
