Slidify package not available in R 3.1.2?

Question

I tried to install the Slidify package using R version 3.1.2 on Windows.

using the command- install.packages ("slidify")

it returns a "slidify" error message for version 3.1.2.

Is it really not available for version 3.1.2?

If so, what alternative package can I use instead of "Slidify"?

Answer 1

Slidify is not on CRAN (yet?). You must install it from GitHUB (as mentioned on the Slidify website):

Slidify is not yet installed on CRAN and must be installed from github. You can use the Hadley devtools package for this. You will also need slidifyLibraries, which contains all the external libraries required by Slidify.

library(devtools) install_github('slidify', 'ramnathv') install_github('slidifyLibraries', 'ramnathv')
