Hi folks,

New to the tooling. I'm creating multiple labs on Session and wanted to preview the google doc prior to upload. A Preview extension/tool will greatly help verify the edit and save me tons of time in between uploads.

As the suggested extension was blocked by my company admin for the time being, I was wondering if there are any alternatives to the Preview Codelab Chrome extension?

Any advice is appreciated!

Hi Jason,

You could use the `claat serve` to preview the output formats you've generated. This will start a localhost where you should be able to preview the codelabs. See bullet 4 and 5 here: https://github.com/googlecodelabs/tools#ok-how-do-i-use-it .

All the best and I hope your company admin unblocks the extension at some point.
