Get started

You can get started with some built-in R Markdown templates in this package. If you use the RStudio IDE, you can create a new R Markdown document from File -> New File -> R Markdown -> From Template. Then find a rolldown template from the list. If you do not use RStudio, you may use the rmarkdown::draft() function to create a new R Markdown document, e.g.,

rmarkdown::draft('story.Rmd', template = 'scrollama-document', package = 'rolldown')
