Create a copy of this repository

You can create a new GitHub repository in your own GitHub account that is a copy of this repository for yourself to edit/write code and notes. Github calls this “creating a template repository.” This is different than a fork because there will be no link between the original and your repository. From there, you can clone the repository with the git clone command and run / edit the code in the repository.

Creating a repository with the template can be done in the following way:

From there, you can follow these instructions. However do not optionally select “Include all branches” as you do not need this for your own projects.

Software

These materials use tidyverse and packages from Bioconductor version 3.15. This is the current ‘release’ version of Bioconductor, which can be installed following these instructions.

For example, you can then install a subset of the packages necessary for these tutorials using the following:

library(BiocManager)
install(c("SingleCellExperiment","scater", "scran"))
