Compare Jekyll vs Bookdown #8

Closed cmcd77 closed 5 years ago

cmcd77 commented 5 years ago

Jekyll seems to run GitHub, so it is interoperable. Runs on a Ruby development environment, and stored on a GitHub repository. There are some step by step tutorials to learn this, but it will be a learning curve, although the end result can be more visually attractive. This seems to be a commercial site

Bookdown is a way to write books with R Markdown. There is a clearly written bookdown book on writing bookdown books. (HA!) It has a distinctive style that is no-nonsense and clear. Bookdown.org seems to be non-commercial

Bookdown seems more user-friendly.
