Create an HTML file that displays a tile preview using Leaflet.
tile_viewer(tiles, zoom, width = NULL, height = NULL, georef = TRUE, ...)nothing is returned, but a file is written to disk.

logical, for non-geographic tiles only. If viewer = TRUE,
then the Leaflet widget in preview.html will add map markers with
coordinate labels on mouse click to assist with georeferencing of
non-geographic tiles.
additional optional arguments include lng and lat for setting
the view longitude and latitude. These three arguments only apply to
geographic tiles. Viewer centering is (0, 0) by default.
This function creates a file preview.html adjacent to the tiles base
directory. When loaded in the browser, this file displays map tiles from the
adjacent folder. For example, if tiles are stored in project/tiles, this
function creates project/preview.html.
By default, tile() creates this file. The only reasons to call
tile_viewer() directly after producing map tiles are: (1) if
viewer = FALSE was set in the call to tile(), (2) if tile() was called
multiple times, e.g., for different batches of zoom levels, and thus the most
recent call did not use the full zoom range, or (3) preview.html was
deleted for some other reason.
If calling this function directly, ensure that the min and max zoom, and
original image pixel dimensions if applicable, match the generated tiles.
These arguments are passed to tile_viewer} automatically when called within tile(), based on the source file provided to tile()`.

tile_viewer(file.path(tempdir(), "tiles"), "3-7") # requires existing tiles
