We will use renv to manage packages in a project-specific way. To use renv to install packages, you will first need to install the renv package itself. Here’s how to install renv and then use it to install packages:

1. Run the following command in your R console:

   install.packages("renv")

2. Next, you will need to create a new renv environment for your project by running the following command:

   renv::init()

3. This will create a new directory called .renv in your current project directory.
4. You can then install packages with the following command:

   install.packages("<package name>")

5. You can also use the renv package manager to install Bioconductor packages by running the following command:

   renv::install("bioc::<package name>")

6. For example, to install the Biobase package, you would run the following command:

   renv::install("bioc::Biobase")

7. You can use renv to install development packages from GitHub...
