Before the workshop, please make sure that R and RStudio are installed on your laptop. (You should have version 3.3 or higher for R and version 1.0 or higher of RStudio.) Then install the tidyverse, gapminder, fivethirtyeight and rmarkdown packages from CRAN using the following command:

install.packages(c("tidyverse", "gapminder", "fivethirtyeight", "rmarkdown"))

We'll be using the cascadiarconf slack (http://cascadiarconf.slack.com). Here is the link to the invite if you haven't yet joined: http://bit.ly/cascadiarconf

Go to the #gradual-tidyverse channel. Feel free to ask questions there! Please answer them if you know the answer.
