HelpWriter publish module function online help

Post by hmiller10 »

Is it possible to take an existing HelpWriter XML file, generated markdown or generated HTML files and use them to publish a PowerShell module's help online? If so, please define the steps in any reply.

If you are publishing your module to the PowerShell Gallery, you may find the following helpful:
