Sharing Projects on rstudio.ppls.ed.ac.uk

1. In the top right of RStudio you can control your projects.
   In the project that you want to share, click on the project name (top right), and in the drop-down menu, select “Share Project”.

2. Select the user (e.g., a tutor who is providing assistance) you wish to share your project with. to do this you will need their University UserName (UUN).

3. You will be able to see when the other user joins you, as you will see their name up in the top right.

• You can follow their cursor (and they can follow yours).

Notes:

• To collaboratively edit a file, it needs to be a file which is saved in your project. So if you’re working on a script you have never saved (“Untitled1.Rmd”.. etc), your collaborator won’t be able to see it.
  
• You are collaborating on the editor, but not on the R session. This means that you each have separate consoles, and separate outputs underneath code-chunks in an .Rmd (and you can’t see each others). You can still discuss your respective outputs (and you can ensure they are identical by using set.seed(<insert random number here>) to make any random sampling the same for both of you).
  
• If someone shares a project with you, you can find it in the drop-down list of your projects.
