This package includes RMarkdown and ioslides templates that incorporate the Telethon Kid’s style guide and emulate the Institutes Web theme. Currently, templates are available to produce stand-alone HTML reports and ioslides presentations. These templates also include colour palettes that will automatically reproduce Telethon Kids style in R graphics. A number of helper functions and data-sets are also available.
The Telethon Kids Institute biometrics package can be installed with:
remotes::install_github("TelethonKids/biometrics", build_vignettes = TRUE)
Once the biometrics package has been installed, the templates can be accessed through the New -> R markdown -> From template menu.
Both templates have been created with R markdown and the normal syntax should be followed. Some specific instructions and examples are included in default documents. A cheat-sheet explaining how to use markdown in R has been prepared by R Studio.
Specific instructions for some of the packages and functions that we use in our workflow are described in the package vignettes:
vignette("html_report", package = "biometrics")
