### Installing Pandoc on WSL 2
As part of this workshop, we'll be working with [R Notebooks](https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown/notebook.html).
To render these documents to HTML from the command line, you will need a separate piece of software called Pandoc.
(Note that you do not need a separate installation of Pandoc to render these documents from _within RStudio_ - only to render from the command line.)
To install Pandoc on the _WSL 2_ side of your machine, enter this command in the Ubuntu terminal:
```sh
sudo apt-get install pandoc
```
You may then be prompted for your password, and Pandoc will install.

We recommend [Visual Studio Code ("VS Code")](https://code.visualstudio.com/), but if you already have a text editor you prefer, please feel free to stick with that!
Some alternatives you may have encountered are [Sublime Text](https://www.sublimetext.com/) and [Notepad++](https://notepad-plus-plus.org).
