    Installing Poirot

    Poirot is still under development and can be installed from github using devtools. You will also need to install the development versions of slidify and slidifyLibraries.

    require(devtools)
    install_github('poirot', 'ramnathv')
    install_github('slidify', 'ramnathv', ref = 'dev')
    install_github('slidifyLibraries', 'ramnathv')
    

    Poirot uses markdown for text content, knitr for code chunks and mustache for templating. Poirot is highly extensible using widgets. As a publishing framework for data scientists, Poirot comes pre-equipped with support for math, visualization and tables.
