The intent of this course is to provide an introduction to Quarto for intermediate to advanced R users seeking to develop automated reports. We will cover the basics of Quarto, followed by a walkthrough of the three primary components of a Quarto file: the YAML metadata, text, and code blocks. After discussing each component, we will offer brief exercises that allow participants to explore how these components can customize documents. Our goal is for participants to leave with foundational skills necessary to create a Quarto report.
