Is there a reason to use the github version of remedy vs the CRAN version? https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/remedy/index.html

Hi David - I'm getting stuck when trying to knit the document. It's giving me the following error:
"Error in contrib.url(repos, "source") : trying to use CRAN without setting a mirror Calls: ... withVisible -> eval -> eval -> install.packages -> contrib.url Execution halted"

I installed the remotes package then used remotes::install_github("ThinkR-open/remedy").

Any thoughts? I couldn't seemed to find any solutions online that helped me. Thank you.
