This gt workshop will teach you about what gt can do, and, it'll give you an opportunity to experiment with the package. It's available as a Posit Cloud project, and that makes it easy to get up and running.

The goal of the workshop is to introduce you to a lot of examples and provide some time to generate some sample tables, learning bit-by-bit as we go.
Each module of the workshop focuses on a different family of functions, with relevant examples and exercises in each. They are all presented here as Quarto (.qmd) files with one file for each workshop module:
-
"01-create-table.qmd"(The Create Table Family of Functions) -
"02-create-modify-parts.qmd"(The Create/Modify Parts Family of Functions) -
"02z-PRACTICE-01-02.qmd"(Practice with functions from modules01and02) -
"03-format-data.qmd"(The Format Data Family of Functions) -
"04-modify-columns.qmd"(The Modify Columns Family of Functions) -
"04z-PRACTICE-03-04.qmd"(Practice with functions from modules03and04) -
"05-summaries.qmd"(The Add Rows Family of Functions) -
"06-table_option_functions.qmd"(The Family of Table Option Functions) -
"06z-PRACTICE-05-06.qmd"(Practice with functions from modules05and06)
You can navigate to any of these and modify the code within the self-contained code chunks. Entire Quarto files can be rendered to HTML.
You can install gt on your system by using install.packages():
install.packages("gt")
