Making R Packages

This repo contains all the materials for my training on building your own R packages.

If you'd like to use my scripts to follow along during the training in person, just clone or download this repo and you'll be all set.

Slides

The slides are in this repo in PDF form. Feel free to use them to follow along!

Dependencies

In order to follow along smoothly using my scripts, you'll need to have installed the packages dplyr, glue, and feather, all of which are on CRAN.
