 The `book` target first removes the existing Jupyter Book build artifacts and then performs a fresh site build using `uv run jupyter book build --all`.
 
+You can run the `make serve` command to do all the steps from `make book`, but further initiate a local server on which you can view, check, and validate the functioning web site.

+```bash
+make serve
