I usually forward people to this ~~interactive tutorial~~; we'll use this one; also see reference guide
Also our website
Markdown live preview ~~(this one not maintained anymore)~~
Within IDE the reference guide:
This add-in looks useful for educators, and for students who don't know markdown: https://github.com/thinkr-open/remedy

@Apreshill I like the second interactive tutorial more because the side bar helps you skip to whatever you're most interested in. Also, it might be nice to include this simple markdown live preview for very time-pressed folks who need a quick reference that is still interactive.

Consider adding to the cookbooks: a basic knitr cookbook, with simple recipes focused on combining multiple code chunk options. I'm finding them long and boring to include in the narrative of a chapter, but important enough to include.
