Sign up for GitHub if you don’t have an account. Create a new repository (the
name doesn’t mater) and make sure to check the box for Initialize this repo
with a README file. Open Finder of Windows explorer on your computer.
Navigate to the FSCI directory and find the .html file you’ve been knitting.

index.html to the box and click the green button at the bottom. Now go to
settings on GitHub. Scroll down to the GHPages section and click the dropbown

We need to copy all files used by knitter into our GitHub repository. Make a
copy of your .Rmd file that doesn’t include the ORCID section (The
authentication is a pain). Then we
need to tell Binder that we want to run R and what our dependencies are. In
GitHub, create a runtime.txt file that contains: r-2018-07-09. This
chooses a version of R at the date indicated. Next create a install.R file
that contains:
install.packages("rmarkdown")
install.packages("bitops")
install.packages("caTools")
install.packages("tidyverse")
install.packages("DT")
Now edit the README file in Github and add:
https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/AuthorCarpentry/R-Binder/master?urlpath=rstudio
replacing AuthorCarpentry with your GitHub account name and R-Binder with
your GitHub repository name. Click the Binder button and your environment will
load (it might take up to 20 mins the first time).
