Yeah GitHub-flavored markdown is never going to play nicely with your flextables. The "basic markdown" vibe is intentional for README.[R]md
since README.md
actually goes to CRAN and is displayed on CRAN landing pages. So that markdown needs to remain fairly low-tech.
Most people allow index.html
for their pkgdown site to be created from README.md
, but there are other options and I think this might apply to you:
The main content of the home page (
index.html
) is generated frompkgdown/index.md
,index.md
, orREADME.md
, in that order. Most packages will useREADME.md
because that's also displayed by GitHub and CRAN. Useindex.md
if you want your package website to look different to yourREADME
, and usepkgdown/index.md
if you don't want that file to live in your package root directory.If you use
index.Rmd
orREADME.Rmd
it's your responsibility to knit the document to create the corresponding.md
. pkgdown does not do this for you because it only touches files in thedoc/
directory.

I think this is not a problem we can solve for you in devtools, but I think you can solve it with more work on the pkgdown side.
from devtools.
Late to the story here, but I have found this works for me if I use webshot, not webshot2. I believe knitr looks first for webshot2, so if you have it installed, you need to uninstall it. And webshot requires phantomjs:
# remove.packages("webshot2") # If it is installed
install.packages("webshot")
webshot::install_phantomjs()
devtools::build_readme()
This successfully renders html output (mapview) to pngs in my README eg here.
Re webshot2, I think there is an issue properly launching chromote in some situations, but I can't find where that is now...
Edit: This doesn't solve the rendering of html in pkgdown, but does automatically create the pngs in the README.md
from devtools.
