R Markdown is an R package that renders documents combining code, its output and prose. The package’s homepage lists HTML, PDF, Word, slides, dashboards and websites among its output formats.
Worth knowing
The README requires Pandoc outside RStudio, and RStudio includes it. The README describes the documents as analysis documents. A Shiny document needs a running Shiny server to be served, which the run function starts.
