Could we make an equivalent for cow::borrow_chapter()? #84

Open kweav opened 1 month ago

Noticing that we are linking to the containers sandbox website from the ITCR Annual meeting website so that we're not reusing the Rmd's for the activities in the second repo (and having to update both down the road). Could we make an equivalent of cow::borrow_chapter() so that the "borrowed" page is part of the website and not linking to another website.

You read my mind! At least partially! I keep thinking about the maintenance and reuse of these websites and haven't done anything about it.

The functionality is the same so there's no reason we can't use borrow_chapter to do this.

However, part of me is okay with the idea that these websites are a one time use. So we could just copy the Rmd to the current repo if we prefer to have it be one website.

Curious which @carriewright11 would prefer!

I'm excited the functionality is the same, but also agree that these websites seem to be a one time use and so maybe copying the Rmd's is the way to go?

Hmmm, yeah I feel like since there are alternatives, unless you're super excited about developing it, maybe we should prioritize other dev projects?

Do you think it's possible we will need it again though for other workshops?
