Demo Outline

These are roughly the steps I’ll cover in the “Tour of Quarto”:

  • Open the Quarto document called hello-penguins.qmd. Opens in Visual Mode.

  • Note the extension .qmd: short for Quarto Markdown.

  • Render using “Render” button. Quarto does its magic.

  • Output is hello-penguins.html.

  • Switch to Source Editor.

  • Point out Quarto document components in .qmd and their counterparts in .html:

    • YAML header surrounded by ---. Title block in .html.
    • Code cells surrounded ```` ```. Code and output in.html`. Code cells can be run in Console.
    • Markdown Text. So far, only headings ##.
  • Show off some other formats:

    • format: pdf

    • format: docx

    • format: revealjs

  • Show off some features:

    • Visual editor: Bold palmerpenguins and add link to https://allisonhorst.github.io/palmerpenguins/.

    • Control code output: Add code chunk options:

      • fig-alt

      • echo: false , then move to YAML header

      • code-fold: true instead

      • theme: vapor under html

    • Cross reference a figure:

      • Add a caption, refer in text
    • Add a citation: 10.1371/journal.pone.0090081

  • If time permits, publish:

    Terminal
    quarto publish hello-penguins.qmd
