+## Preview
+
+For non-technical users that might not want to install the tools above, you can request a preview in the GitHub pull request. The preview is added as a comment in the pull request and opens as a web page.
+
+Another alternative if you do not want to build the documentation to preview, is to install install Esbonio https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=swyddfa.esbonio into VSCode. Then you can use the command palette to run >Esbonio:OpenPreview. This builds a preview file. This solution still requires that you have VSCode installed and the repository locally on your computer.
