Editing locally
While editing locally, you can use a browser as a live preview of your rendered Markdown. In the root folder of the book, run
mdbook serve
Open the address http://localhost:3000 in a browser, as indicated in the output.
Alternatively, this command opens the browser automatically:
mdbook serve --open
Whenever you save edits to the book's files, the browser view will refresh.
