The release brings new formats for dashboards and Typst, a new manuscript project type, a cross-reference overhaul, Shiny for Python support, and a ton of other updates.
The data visualisation guidance for the Royal Statistical Society that I've been working on over the past few months with Brian Tarran and Andreas Krause has now been published and is freely available online 🎉
If you're someone who makes charts, please have a look through the website (built with #QuartoPub) and let us know your thoughts. There are lots of examples of plots built with #RStats (and a few #Python ones as well)!
The #PositConf2024 schedule is out! I'll be presenting on using Sverto and other ways to make animated web graphics in #QuartoPub, and my colleague Andrew Bray will be presenting Closeread, a Quarto scrollytelling extension that we've been cooking up!
If you want to learn some new skills in the new year, why not come along to my "Customizing slides and documents using Quarto extensions" workshop next week on January 11?
🎨 Style HTML and PDF Quarto documents
🛠️ Build your own Quarto extension
💻 Suitable for R, Python, and Julia users
This workshop is part of the "Workshops for Ukraine" series organised by Dariia Mykhailyshyna.
Anyone happen to know a totally non-technical tutorial for creating a #QuartoPub website? Like for someone who should be using Wordpress but wants to use #quarto 😁. Deployed to Netlify. No Github. Finding lots of nice tutorials, but all are still a bit more technical than what I want. Tagging a few folks who might know: @jadeynryan@nrennie@andrew
I've made an #rstats Quarto book demo with a wasm-embedded shiny app to demonstrate how class boundaries change with the complexity of natural splines.
Super easy thanks to the #QuartoPub shinylive extension! Also huge thanks to r-universe.dev for providing WASM binaries so I could install and demo this package even though it isn't on CRAN!
It’s nearly time for #AdventOfCode! I’ve made a template for creating a #QuartoPub website/project to work on, write up and share your solutions. Each year is a listing page and each day is a blog post.
It also has a companion #RStats 📦 {aochelpers} which makes it easy to get puzzle input, set up new posts and listings, using supplied (though personalisable) templates.
I've been searching resources and materials to make my Quarto presentations and website more accessible to visually impaired students and users. But, I wanted to reach out the R community to ask if anyone has more materials, knowledge or just opinions on how to improve accessibility using Quarto. I've found some blogs by Quarto users but I haven't found too many options. #QuartoPub#accessibility#webdev#stats

@minecr shared invaluable insights during her webinar for R/Medicine. Some key highlights from the session include:
• Step-by-step instructions for getting started with a new manuscript project
• Obtaining multiple formats from one source
• Embedding computations from supplementary notebooks
• And more!
📣 I launched my first newsletter! It's free and I'll be using it to send a little email note any time I publish a blog post, publication, talk, or project on my #quarto site.
Our friends at @holoviz_org migrated their blog to #Quarto. They wanted something easy to use that seamlessly renders #Python#Jupyter notebooks into blog posts, and #QuartoPub does just that! Read more about their thought process here:
Apropos of nothing, if you've ever used #Quarto from the command line, you owe it to yourself to check out qvm for installing new releases (and downgrading to older versions when necessary):
