Include picture for quiz in learnr

[DrAtzi]

Hello,

I am using learnr to create a quiz for my students and I wonder if it is possible to include pictures in learnr? I know how to include picture in rmarkdoen, but the same code doesn't work for learnr. There is no error, just the picture is not shown when I run the code. I apologize if this a stupid quesion; I am just starting with R and still have a lot to learn. However, I googled that issue already, but I didn't find an answer.

I'd appreciate any advice!

Hi DrAtzi,

it works the same as with shiny applications. Create a folder (called “www”) and adjust the path in markdown to ![](www/picture.png). Or you can use the html tag: <img src="www/picture.png" style="width: 80%"/>.

Best,
Edgar

If the image is part of the static content, you can include it just like in a regular R Markdown document: ![image description](picture.png).

This doesn't work for images that are shown as part of the dynamic content. When an image appears in a question or another part of your app, place the image in an images/ folder next to your tutorial. learnr makes sure that folder is accessible by the shiny app that runs the tutorial, so you can reference the image as ![image description](images/picture.png). (This is very much in line with @edgar-treischl's answer above, but I recommend this approach instead so you don't have to worry as much about the path to the image.)
