Why Chores Before Our Session Even Begins?

This session is designed to be a beginner friendly environment in live seminar/lab style. To follow along, we need to have the same tools to work with. We are completing setups before our session so that we can dive right into the good stuff in our session.

Please ensure all of the setups in the “What Setups Do We Need?” completed before joining the session.

What Setups Do We Need?

  1. Personal laptop.

  • Windows OS preferred, as I will be using a Windows laptop for the session, but macOS should also have no problem.

  • Why Personal laptops?

    • Company-managed laptops tend to have restrictive IT policies that tend to prohibit us from installing the tools as we need.

  1. PostgreSQL server (see Get Started with PostgreSQL)

  2. R (see Get Started with R)

  3. Positron (see Get Started with Positron)

🎉🎉 That’s it!! That’s all the setup we need to get the show going! I look forward to seeing you see the session!
