Hi!  
I started learning [weave](http://weavejl.mpastell.com/stable/), for create Documentation using Julia.  
I can not see the preview in the Atom editor (I have the language-weave installed, and Julia too).

Is there another way to see the preview, maybe another editor/IDE?

Thank you,

Alexandre.

The VS Code Julia extension supports weave preview. But, I think it should also actually work in Juno, if I’m not mistaken.

Please provide some more info than

> I can not see the preview

What happens when you click on one of the toolbar buttons or use the `Weave To Pdf`/`Weave to Html` commands?

You need to use one of the lower two buttons that say `Weave HTML` or `Weave PDF`.

Then you’re either not on the latest version of `language-weave` or something went wrong during installation (assuming you do have the `tool-bar` package installed).  
`language-weave`’s [readme](https://github.com/JunoLab/language-weave) also has a picture of how everything should look like.
