using childesr

[macw]

Folks,
I just now found time to start using and testing childesr. However, I am having trouble at the installation phase. The only place I saw to report this type of problem was here in the bug list, which is probably not what it was intended for. Perhaps you want some other user help contact person.
In the most recent R Studio on High Sierra on Mac, I ran the command for installation given on the API page: install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("langcog/childesr")
It ran, and downloaded about 12 things, although it said a binary was available and I don't know if that was downloaded or not. In any case, when I tried the next step (on a different page) which seems to say that I can load with library(childesr), I get
library(childesr)
Error in library(childesr) : there is no package called ‘childesr’

So, that is as far as I got. Is there a way to get further?
