One of the things I really love about Quarto is that it's a great way to package WebAssembly tools. For example the Shiny for Python website is built using Quarto and has tons of WASM examples which let people play around with the framework without having to install it. It's really changed how we write documentation.<p><a href="https://shiny.posit.co/py/docs/overview.html" rel="nofollow">https://shiny.posit.co/py/docs/overview.html</a><p>Some other great quarto features:<p>- Write Python Package documentation with Quarto Doc: <a href="https://github.com/machow/quartodoc">https://github.com/machow/quartodoc</a><p>- Make static dashboards with Quarto Dashboard <a href="https://quarto.org/docs/dashboards/" rel="nofollow">https://quarto.org/docs/dashboards/</a><p>- Fully integrates Typst: <a href="https://quarto.org/docs/blog/posts/2024-01-24-1.4-release/#t" rel="nofollow">https://quarto.org/docs/blog/posts/2024-01-24-1.4-release/#t</a>...<p>- Render to a ton of formats including PDF, HTML, Reveal JS, Word, and PowerPoint<p>- Allows you to use GitHub with a Jupyter Notebook workflow
Just wanted to say I recently converted my personal blog [1] from Wordpress to Quarto and it's been a joy to work in! The fantastic support for literate programming tools (code highlighting/annotation) and cross-referencing has taken away much of the friction to writing and releasing new posts.<p>[1] See profile

I did it with pandoc/mdbook, but would've likely gone with Quarto if it had been available at that time.
If you're looking for a place to deploy Quarto projects for free, check out Ploomber Cloud.<p>We added support recently and have some nice features like password protection: <a href="https://docs.cloud.ploomber.io/en/latest/apps/quarto.html">https://docs.cloud.ploomber.io/en/latest/apps/quarto.html</a>
Is there a way (a common template/theme or so) to get small, fast-loading web pages from quarto?<p>Obviously, as soon as you‘re using math, you‘ll get MathJax or KaTex, all the reactive stuff needs JavaScript libraries, but is there a small baseline for just „heading paragraph paragraph image paragraph“ type pages?
even back when this was just known as RNotebooks this was a great system for producing executable reports that did not warrant the complications of a full latex setup. it’s only gotten better since
How feasible would it be to write a scientific paper in quarto? Is it possible to write something that one could publish at a conference? Or is this primarily for the web?
I thought that it was the board game: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarto_(board_game)" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarto_(board_game)</a>
