ALEX, TO UPDATE README.QMD, RUN:
HOWEVER MAKE SURE TO UPDATE THE VERSION # FIRST!!!

quarto::quarto_render("README.qmd")

AT THE CONSOLE--DON'T HIT THE RENDER BUTTON!

quarto::quarto_render("docs/ggplotplus_guide.qmd")


###UPDATING THE PACKAGE FILES
First, load devtools.
Then, do devtools::load_all(). Resolve any conflicts with global.
Then, do devtools::document(). Resolve any conflicts and identified issues. Check Namespace and description for updates
#Then do devtools::install(). This will make sure the package can successfully install locally. HOWEVER, I THINK CHECK ALREADY CHECKS FOR THIS.
Then, do devtools::check(). This will search for bugs/errors/misspecifications, etc.
#rcmdcheck::rcmdcheck() will do a much more thorough search with respect to things that CRAN would care about. But it doesn't work, and it's not necessary.


###CRAN DEPLOYMENT CHECKLIST
devtools::document()
devtools::check()
devtools::check_win_devel()
devtools::check_win_release()
#usethis::use_cran_comments()
devtools::spell_check()
urlchecker::url_check()
devtools::submit_cran()
