The YAML header should be contained between ---, the R code in chuncks starting and endding with ```, see.
Try to knit following .Rmd file :

---
title: "R"
output:
   flexdashboard::flex_dashboard:
   orientation: columns
   vertical_layout: fill
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
library(flexdashboard)
library(rmarkdown)
library(knitr)
library(readxl)
```
