Workshop description

In this 3-hour workshop, participants will learn to use the Quarto publishing system in conjunction with R or Python to create a publication-ready manuscript that combines data, code, text, and references. More specifically, they will learn how to:

  • Create a reproducible project (folder) structure
  • Use Markdown syntax effectively for writing text
  • Run analyses in code chunks or cells
  • Manage references using Zotero and Better BibTex for Zotero
  • 'Render' your Quarto project to Word, HTML, and pdf files

Upcoming workshops

We teach this workshop every 2 months, have a look at the agenda for information on dates and locations, and to register for the workshop.
