I am trying to create a rmarkdown document for monthly reports. The issue I have is writing code and trying to visualize what the result would look like in the final document. I can generate and view maps in RStudio but this doesn't show me how they are positioned relative to text and other features within the output document (PDF, HTML etc)
Is there software that exists that allows you to write code in one window and view the product in another as code is developed? At the moment I am knitting the code and viewing the results in a trial and error process. It would be nice to see what the results look like in the document without having to rerun my file each time I change a piece of code and open the output document.
Kind regards,
Simon
