0.2 Andrew’s Notes

To render the book used the following code, you must do this before knitting the GitBook (webpage)

bookdown::render_book("index.Rmd", "bookdown::gitbook")
bookdown::render_book("index.Rmd", "bookdown::pdf_book", encoding="UTF-8")
bookdown::render_book("index.Rmd", "bookdown::epub_book")

# after previewing the book 
# Which is done by running these lines

bookdown::serve_book()

# To stop the process run (or you can restart your session)
servr::daemon_stop("981593464")

The _output.yml contains the header arguments. I would but them here so its cleaner and easier to read the code.

0.3 Andrew’s Resources

These resources are not relevant for students but they are to me.

This post incorporates several types (YouTube, GitBook, GIF, learnr) into one gitbook export. I’m not sure how he did it so the code might be revealing.
