2 column Section in R Markdown

Question

I\'m very new at R Markdown and I\'m putting together an R Markdown HTML page for some new R users at my work to give them an intro and walk them through some simple demos.

Answer 1

The custom css solution from rawr is good, but there is another way if you would like even more customisation and avoid explicit css entirely. Since markdown uses Bootstrap-layout we can use Bootstraps grid layout for in-detail-styling:

The only drawback are a couple of html-tags extra

Example:

---
title: "test"
author: "Testperson"
output:
  html_document
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```

## R Markdown

This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see .

When you click the **Knit** button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:



```{r cars,  warning = FALSE, echo = FALSE, dev=c('svg')}
plot(pressure)
```


```{r pressure, warning = FALSE, echo=FALSE, dev=c('svg')}
plot(pressure)
```
