"This book will be a popular addition on the desk of many professionals who regularly produce technical documents in the R language."~Carl Boettiger, University of California, Berkeley 
"Novices will benefit from reading this book because they will quickly find high quality solutions to the most common issues that users encounter. Experts will benefit because it will save them from constantly trying to rediscover ‘that thread that explains how to do that one thing.’"~ Dr. John Blischak, University of Chicago\n"Though I am a frequent and longtime user of RMarkdown, there were multiple points where I learned new things and capabilities that I’d never seen. Sometimes incredible features are ‘hidden"; this book eposes features and tricks that this seasoned RMarkdown user was surprised and excited by."~ Sharla Gelfand, R and Shiny Developer 
"This book is useful for R stats users who, while using RMarkdown, come across certain problems that can be solved. It also provides advanced users with additional options to further customize RMarkdown to their personal needs. The many subchapters address a number of issues that a large majority of users can use as a reference book for their needs. There are examples for every user, no matter what previous knowledge is available and therefore this book is useful for any user group of markdown."~Dr. Johannes Friedrich 
"This book is interesting for a wide level of RMarkdown users."~MSc. Yasumoto, Atsushi, HACARUS Inc.\nAbout the Author

blogdown: Creating Websites with R Markdown (Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series)

blogdown: Creating Websites with R Markdown provides a practical guide for creating websites using the blogdown package in R. In this book, we show you how to use dynamic R Markdown documents to build static websites featuring R code (or other programming languages) with automatically rendered output such as graphics, tables, analysis results, and HTML widgets. The blogdown package is also suitable for technical writing with elements such as citations, footnotes, and LaTeX math. This makes blogdown an ideal platform for any website designed to communicate information about data science, data analysis, data visualization, or R programming. Note that blogdown is not just for blogging or sites about R; it can also be used to create general-purpose websites. By default, blogdown uses Hugo, a popular open-source static website generator, which provides a fast and flexible way to build your site content to be shared online. Other website generators like Jekyll and Hexo are also supported. In this book, you will learn how to: <ul>
<li>Build a website using the blogdown package;</li> <li>Create blog posts and other website content as dynamic documents that can be easily edited and updated;</li> <li>Customize Hugo templates to suit your site’s needs;</li> <li>Publish your website online;</li> <li>Migrate your existing websites to blogdown and Hugo.</li> </ul>

This is the first book on how to create websites based on R Markdown. It makes it much easier to publish data analysis results and R computing/graphics output through websites. The book can be particularly useful to bloggers, and also generally useful to anyone who wants to create a professional personal website.

R Markdown: The Definitive Guide (Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series)

R Markdown: The Definitive Guide is the first official book authored by the core R Markdown developers that provides a comprehensive and accurate reference to the R Markdown ecosystem. With R Markdown, you can easily create reproducible data analysis reports, presentations, dashboards, interactive applications, books, dissertations, websites, and journal articles, while enjoying the simplicity of Markdown and the great power of R and other languages. In this book, you will learn <ul>
<li>Basics: Syntax of Markdown and R code chunks, how to generate figures and tables, and how to use other computing languages </li> <li>Built-in output formats of R Markdown: PDF/HTML/Word/RTF/Markdown documents and ioslides/Slidy/Beamer/PowerPoint presentations </li> <li>Extensions and applications: Dashboards, Tufte handouts, xaringan/reveal.js presentations, websites, books, journal articles, and interactive tutorials </li> <li>Advanced topics: Parameterized reports, HTML widgets, document templates, custom output formats, and Shiny documents. </li> </ul>

bookdown: Authoring Books and Technical Documents with R Markdown (Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series)

bookdown: Authoring Books and Technical Documents with R Markdown presents a much easier way to write books and technical publications than traditional tools such as LaTeX and Word. The bookdown package inherits the simplicity of syntax and flexibility for data analysis from R Markdown, and extends R Markdown for technical writing, so that you can make better use of document elements such as figures, tables, equations, theorems, citations, and references. Similar to LaTeX, you can number and cross-reference these elements with bookdown. Your document can even include live examples so readers can interact with them while reading the book. The book can be rendered to multiple output formats, including LaTeX/PDF, HTML, EPUB, and Word, thus making it easy to put your documents online. The style and theme of these output formats can be customized. We used books and R primarily for examples in this book, but bookdown is not only for books or R. Most features introduced in this book also apply to other types of publications: journal papers, reports, dissertations, course handouts, study notes, and even novels. You do not have to use R, either. Other choices of computing languages include Python, C, C plus plus, SQL, Bash, Stan, JavaScript, and so on, although R is best supported. You can also leave out computing, for example, to write a fiction. This book itself is an example of publishing with bookdown and R Markdown, and its source is fully available on GitHub.
