R Markdown flexdashboard - Change placement of data table

Question

I would like my R Markdown output all the way at the left once I knit to HTML instead it to be centered in the middle. I can't seem to find how to do such a thing.

Below is a reproducible example:

---
title: "Untitled"
output:
  html_document:
    df_print: paged
  flexdashboard::flex_dashboard:
    orientation: columns
    vertical_layout: fill
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
library(flexdashboard)
```

```{r, echo = FALSE}
DT::datatable(iris)
```

Answer 1

Edit: add more info

In your yaml header, the html_document output sits before flex_dashboard, so html_document is the default output when you Knit.

You can select Knit to flex_dashboard in the knit dropdown menu.

I think you need this: layout control of flex_dashboard

In your case, try this:

---
title: "Untitled"
output:
  flexdashboard::flex_dashboard:
    orientation: columns
    vertical_layout: fill
  html_document:
    df_print: paged
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
library(flexdashboard)
```

Column{data-width=50}

### Chart 1

```{r, echo = FALSE}
DT::datatable(iris)
```

Column{data-width=50}
---------------------------------

### Chart 2

```{r}
