  • Scipy 1.13
    > Interactive examples have been added to the documentation, allowing users to run the examples locally on embedded Jupyterlite notebooks in their browser. This might sound strange, but to me this is the most exciting thing listed in the update document. I've been looking for ways to include _interactive_ Python scripts on static webpages (such as those made using Jupyter Book [1] or Quarto [1]. Up to now the only... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
  • Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool
    Deckset was the OG in this space, which I used a decade (!) ago in college. Looks like they moved off the Mac App Store, and are bringing out an iOS app now: https://www.deckset.com Now I much prefer something like https://quarto.org with dataviz. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool
    To mirror another comment: I really like the concept and will give it a try. As an alternative, I want to suggest [Quarto](https://quarto.org) - somewhat similar, easy to use, one might even call it "basic" (I mean that in a good way!) 7/5 ^^. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Polars – A bird's eye view of Polars
    The magic of well-defined APIs! If you're interested in mixing different DS backends and kernels in a single notebook, check out Quarto: [1]: https://quarto.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
    Quarto - https://quarto.org I've been searching for some time also, more or less the same requirements, and I settled on quarto. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Pandoc
    Pandoc is one of my favourite all time tools. As the website says: > If you need to convert files from one markup format into another, pandoc is your swiss-army knife It also sits at the heart of Quarto[0], which adds Jupyter-like code execution (in R, Python and others) into document production. Combined with RStudio as an IDE, it's my new favourite way to write anything - from static documents to full on code... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • I don't always use LaTeX, but when I do, I compile to HTML (2013)
    I've recently switched to Quarto[0] with RStudio desktop[1] as the editor. It's my preferred approach for all writing now: 1. Great markdown editor with both source and WYSIWYG views 2. Render to a wide range of formats including html, pdf, epub, docx 3. Generate books, web sites, single page docs, presentations 4. Incorporate code (like jupyter) except the source is plain text with fenced blocks 5. Supports... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • I don't always use LaTeX, but when I do, I compile to HTML (2013)
    A lot has happened since 2013. Have a look at https://quarto.org/, if you plan to publish in HTML. Quarto has already support for Typst: https://quarto.org/docs/output-formats/typst.html. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Htmldocs: Typeset and Generate PDFs with HTML/CSS
    Great project and great work! I had a similar itch to scratch and I found quarto (https://quarto.org/) - free, open-source and doesn’t depend on chrome (admittedly it has other dependencies, but at least not chrome). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
  • Ask HN: What skill do you want to develop or improve in 2024?
    You might find the following useful : Visual Understanding Environment - https://vue.tufts.edu/ Came across this in another thread recently - https://quarto.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
  • Running Quarto Markdown in Docker
    Quarto is a tool for producing PDF, Word document, HTML web pages, ePub files, slideshows and many, many more output based on a Markdown file. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
  • Which software do you use to create presentations using Vim that is superior to existing ones?
    Quarto is a higher level tool that uses latex/pandoc under the hood. It can run Jupyter style code blocks and include results, and exports to Beamer, RevealJS, and Power Point for presentations. It has very good neovim integration through quarto-nvim, molten.nvim, image.nvim, and otter.nvim. Source: 5 months ago
  • Which software do you use to create presentations using Vim that is superior to existing ones?
    Quarto framework is super easy, markdown file that you can render to presentation in on click, it uses revels under the hood. You can convert the same file to many formats like pdf, blog post, jupyter Nb... Source: 5 months ago
  • Customize Doom Emacs packages?
    I didn't plan to submit an issue because this mod doesn't related to the purpose of ox-hugo - I'm exporting to a quarto blog which has a bit different structure from Hugo. Source: 5 months ago
  • Living Papers: A Language Toolkit for Augmented Scholarly Communication
    Interesting, always curious to see things from the UW data lab! Would be nice to have this supported as a custom format in Quarto [1], which supports some interactivity in documents, but doesn’t have the same focus on it as this. [1]: https://quarto.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
  • Nota is a language for writing documents, like academic papers and blog posts
    I was just thinking about wha the easiest way would be to create a blog with mostly static content but with room for interactive graphs or arbitrary customization if I want it. Is this a good option? Another option I saw was Quarto [1], and maybe a simple static site blog can be used as well where I just edit the output HTML as needed? What do you all recommend? [1] https://quarto.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
  • No comments. Now what?
    Another effective way to use comments is through literate programming. In this programming style, comments take the spotlight: the source code contains more prose than executable code. This is useful when explaining the algorithm is more important than reading it, as in academic research and data analysis. Not surprisingly, it is the paradigm of popular tools like Jupyter Notebook and Quarto. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago
  • Ask HN: Best tools for self-authoring books in 2023?
    If you need a website version of your book, I would check out Quarto. It generates ePubs (and other e-formats), a website version, and a PDF. If you just want a print book, I wouldn't bother with something like this. https://quarto.org. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
  • Multiple Tables of Contents possible?
    Next up is using Markdown to write, or optimising your editing for conversion to Markdown. By no means a less suitable result than above, this one is merely different as the writing style with Markdown is considerably easier to work with than LaTeX. Such output can be processed with Scrivener's MultiMarkdown or Pandoc integration straight out of the compiler, or ideally Quarto, which is an up-and-coming... Source: 8 months ago
  • I work for a small Shopping Centre, how could I make a word document image automatically update with an image file?
    I’m actually a consultant that does this kind of stuff for a living. One solution with what you’re needing is a markdown document. Quarto is a free open source publishing system that can do that. You could also look into setting up a workflow with some macros that can automate this process. Source: 8 months ago
