Build your lesson site

Description

This function orchestrates rendering generated lesson content and applying the theme for the HTML site.

Usage

build_lesson(
  path = ".",

  quiet = !interactive(),
  preview = TRUE,
  override = list()
)

Arguments

path	the path to your repository (defaults to your current working directory)
rebuild	if TRUE, everything will be built from scratch as if there was no cache. Defaults to FALSE, which will only build markdown files that haven't been built before.
