The clean command
The clean command is used to delete the generated book and any other build artifacts.
mdbook clean
Specify a directory
The clean command can take a directory as an argument to use as the book’s
root instead of the current working directory.
mdbook clean path/to/book
--dest-dir
The --dest-dir (-d) option allows you to override the book’s output
directory, which will be deleted by this command. Relative paths are interpreted
relative to the book’s root directory. If not specified it will default to the
value of the build.build-dir key in book.toml, or to ./book.
mdbook clean --dest-dir=path/to/book
path/to/book could be absolute or relative.
