I've started to play with bookdown (RStudio, Mac) to write some lecture notes, that I will change a lot during the course. Just for keeping things tidy, I would prefer not to create epub or pdf versions of the notes, or, alternatively, hide the download icon. Is this possible? Thanks.
I think the easiest way to prevent that epub and pdf versions are produced (assuming that you're working in a bookdown RStudio project) is to check bookdown::gitbook in the build pane an then hit Build Book.
You may also hide the download button by setting download: no in the _output.yml file:
bookdown::gitbook:
config:
download: no
