Pimp My R-Markdown

R markdown creates interactive reports from R code. I’ve created a document that provides a few tips I use on a daily basis to improve the appearance of my html outputs (my memory aid). This document is built using R Markdown and hosted on Github.

You can access it here, and here is a list of the current tips that are displayed:

Text formating
Horizontal line
Chapter auto numbering
Skip a line
Center an image

Add footer or header
Add space before title
Add caption to your figures
Custom caption
Insert equations

2 figures in 2 columns
Use buttons or tabs for sub-chapters
Use DT for tables- Hide code
Highlight a piece of text with CSS
Cache code

Add a github link in the corner of your document
Internal link
URL linking to a specific section
Use interactive graphics
Use a template

Share it online
Compile several in a website
Create template
Add a session info

Of course this list is not exhaustive. If you know some tips that should be added, please advise me! You can comment this post or use the dedicated GitHub repository.
