What I did:

• I installed the hugo version 0.80.0.
• I installed the latest blogdown

packageVersion("blogdown")
[1] ‘1.1.10’

And I get the error message when I try to blogdown::serve_site()

library(blogdown)

I think I should get the same blog at least in the local (which is not public). I have no idea why the page rendering gets errors.

Welp 😭

That is because those are not real instructions- those are placeholders for theme testing that I forgot about! The theme is currently a WIP without good docs, so I'll add more signposts around that.

The actual real workshop materials are here:
https://iyo-rstudio-global.netlify.app/collection/day02/

But even those are a bit out of date as I moved the repos to this new organization instead of under my personal account.

@apreshill Oh, I see. I will wait for the better guidelines to be published. The theme is fascinating that makes me consider moving from academic-Hugo. :-)
