### Installing materials locally

We will provide a link to a Posit Cloud space for the workshop.
However, we recommend also installing the materials locally so you have two options.

To install the required packages and course materials, we have an R package called {[causalworkshop](https://github.com/malcolmbarrett/causalworkshop)} to help you do that!
You can install {[causalworkshop](https://github.com/r-causal/causalworkshop)} from GitHub with:

``` r
install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("r-causal/causalworkshop")
```

Once you've installed the package, install the workshop with

``` r
causalworkshop::install_workshop()
```

By default, this package downloads the materials to a conspicuous place like your Desktop.
You can also tell `install_workshop()` exactly where to put the materials:

``` r
causalworkshop::install_workshop("a/path/on/your/computer")
```

You can also find the materials on the [workshop repository](https://github.com/r-causal/causal_inference_r_workshop).

## Posit Cloud workspace

A public cloud workspace with all materials and packages installed is also available on [Posit Cloud](https://posit.cloud/content/1975583).
*Note that for certain workshops, we may provide a custom link to a cloud workspace.*

## Hosted slides

Following the above instructions will download a PDF copy of the slides.
If you'd like to see the HTML version of the slides, we recommend taking a look at the hosted versions rather than the raw versions in the repository.
