upgrade from RStudio Cloud to working on your own machine
We use RStudio Cloud in the first few weeks of this course because it is the fastest and most pain-free way to get started with R. All you need is internet connection and you can get an RStudio interface that has a functional project set up with packages preinstalled.
If you are really practicing your coding though, sometime in Week 2 or 3 you will run out of free hours on your RStudio Cloud. Congratulations! It is time to upgrade to working in RStudio on your own machine.
Danielle has made a series of videos here that walk you through the process of installing R and RStudio, no matter your machine set up.
