How to close the live preview app? #37

Open TimTaylor opened 5 days ago

Apologies if I have missed something obvious but is there a way to close the live preview app without closing the R session?

If you are in RStudio Viewer, use the broom button to clear the page. If you are in a web browser, close the browser page.

AFAICT - this doesn't stop the app running (i.e. I can revisit the same address and still get the live updates).

You are right. When the app doesn't have any active client connecting to it, it won't do anything and is harmless. Technically it is just a function registered in a special environment. If you do want to clean up that function, I can certainly provide a way to do it.

That would be good. Even if I may not utilise the clean-up often, it does feel like something I should be able to do.

BTW - I really like litedown::roam(). This is will be awesome for navigating notes / presentations etc!
