Save Time, Create Intermediate Previews

You don't have to wait for the entire update process to finish before you can preview your work. Use the draft and make-page actions to create an intermediate preview of your work.

1. Create the new entry or article with draft.

   nb draft preview.txt
   
   

2. Create the preview with make-page.

   nb make-page preview.txt preview.html
   
   

3. When you're satisfied with the preview, initiate the update sequence.

   for an entry:

   nb file preview.txt add
   
   

   for an article (from the articles directory):

   nb query main update
