# blogdown

> **STEMculture Podcast** (@STEMculture; 5/1): Host @DCrainium has used #blogdown to make her own website, a women in science and engineering website, plus the STEMculture website https://t.co/kO2EdyGgyk! Check out @dsquintana for a live stream of him making a blogdown website! https://t.co/er20iuQCGy  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070409452329799682)

> **Dani Crain** (@DCrainium; 5/1): @dsquintana YASSSS was just on a panel for an online presence workshop where I talked about how easy R blogdown is to use! R blogdown sites of mine: https://t.co/NMbREtfHIj, https://t.co/x9bOPApNtu, https://t.co/191pMLsYhl  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070396914686980097)

> **Athanasia Mowinckel** (@DrMowinckels; 3/0): @dsquintana great stuff Dan! Reason you tripped up in the start is because you forgot to qoute blogdown `install.packages("blogdown")` . super easy to forget, as `library` does not need quotes!

> **Dan Quintana** (@dsquintana; 1/0): @nataliadutrapsy More or less start from scratch only assuming you have R studio installed. This only requires the install of the blogdown package  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070388146221797377)

> **Dan Quintana** (@dsquintana; 1/0): @Niels_Bremen I’m so impressed with blogdown, you can get a site up in about 45 mins  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070263924061335552)

> **Niels  📈** (@Niels_Bremen; 1/0): @dsquintana ;) haha, then good luck to us both. I started looking at blogdown once, but then i didn´t have more time. So perhaps seeing this makes me want to try another time.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070263391053381632)

# knitr

> **Allison Horst** (@allison_horst; 38/2): @kierisi Anything about the inner workings of rmarkdown/knitr/pandoc. I press knit, a document appears, and I believe that anything happening in between could be actual magic.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1070323369600442368)
