Modify `dndR` Website #7

Closed njlyon0 closed 1 year ago

njlyon0 commented 1 year ago

Motivation

Having the website be in the package repo is nice for keeping my list of repositories svelte and for keeping all dndR stuff in the same place. However, it has some downsides that are becoming cumbersome:

  1. Stops README from "knitting", instead it "renders" (unless you run rmarkdown::render("README.Rmd") which is annoying
    • Rendering creates a "README.html" and a weird Quarto subfolder for README files while knitting updates "README.md" which is what we want for a good package landing page
  2. Less important (for now) but on the horizon: increases the repo size on GitHub and may make the package bigger too (even though in theory the website content is all listed in the .Rbuildignore)
