Quarto seems to be a great choice for posting with executable codes and it’s nice that one can generate pdfs, slides etc. from a quasi-markdown file with unified styles (qmd). So I decided to start blogging with Quarto and probably make slides with it in the future as the web-based solution (revealjs) looks elegant and promising in the long run.
Building a site with Quarto is relatively easy and interesting. The documentation is very nicely written. You could find some useful tips here. See Navarro (2022) for more work-through details.
By the way, I fell in love with writing in markdown since the birth of another great tool Obsidian and gradually realize that habitual writing is essential for a researcher, for building one’s second brain, understanding things better and sharing knowledge.
For Obsidian, I put some useful plugins here, together with Zotero’s. Maybe I could write a blog for sharing my workflows in academic life. I will probably wait until I get more familiar with Quarto and see how they fit with daily needs.
Welcome to my blog 😃!
