Introduction
R is a great language for data analysis, is used by many companies and individuals and is taught in many online courses. Some online materials are write in R Markdown, a literate programming tool that facilitate authors to mix code into their narrative, but when they are created collaboratively the publication of new versions become challenge. GitLab Pages makes the deployment of new versions of lessons smother and the code repository cleaner.
