I am trying to install tidyverse package and am getting the following errors. Do we have a location from where the package can be downloaded. Mine is from CRAN website.
install.packages("C:/Rajesh/EDX/DataScience/tidyverse_1.2.1.zip", repos = NULL, type = "win.binary")
Installing package into ‘C:/Rajesh/EDX/DataScience/R/package’

package ‘tidyverse’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
library(tidyverse)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
there is no package called ‘broom’

Often, R packages have some dependencies and all the dependency package must be installed for it to load.
tidyverse is a special package that help installed and load in a single line a lot of packages of the tidyverse.
You can't just install tidyverse and not all the others. The error you see is because you are missing some dependencies
The easiest way is to be connected to CRAN mirror and run install.packages("tidyverse"). This will download and install all the required packages.
Manually, this would mean identify the whole dependency tree and downloading all the required packaged and installing them.
Why are you installing from a zip file ? Can you connect to CRAN ?
