Εισαγωγή
I have decided to convert the article into a GitHub Repo
As of March of 2024, Quarto is the most starred project among its alternatives with 3.4k stars compared to blogdown
(1.7k ) and distill
(400 ). Given the increased popularity of Quarto, I took the initiative to make a list of some sites that are using this framework. That way, users of other popular frameworks (e.g., distill, blogdown) will have the chance to see the features of a Quarto site. Furthermore, existing Quarto users can draw inspiration from other web pages.
Unfortunately, it is certain that this list does not contain every Quarto website. However, you are welcome to comment yours in order to be added.
Inspiration
A couple of years ago, I had the desire to create a portfolio website, and I tried out many options. Long story short, I ended up using Distill, and I really loved it because it offered a balance of simplicity and professionalism. Despite some minor issues with Distill (many of which are resolved by Quarto), I was extremely happy with the platform. However, I faced a challenge as I was not only an amateur R programmer but also lacked hands-on experience with HTML/CSS. Around the same time, I discovered a website that listed many Distill websites together. This compilation of websites provided several benefits for me:
- Understand the limits of Distill package
- Motivation to look on others’ websites and take some inspiration
- Easy access to implemented features and their respective code
In 2022, Quarto was announced and the things on website publishing with R changed a little bit. Many users have already considered the change to the new framework (based on the Distill sites listing above). Some others may are hesitant due to the fact that Quarto is new or they are not interested to read long documentation. Thus, I believe that a listing of Quarto websites is needed to make the framework more accessible to newer users and speed the implementation of features for existing ones.
List of Quarto Sites
An indicative list of websites using Quarto is as follows:
