This is a demo using panels and code chunks:

Python code

import pandas as pd

# create a dataframe from a dictionary
df = pd.DataFrame({
    "Col1": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7],
    "Col2": [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
})

print(df)

Annotate your code. 1) specify code-annotations ‘hover’ in yaml 2) highlight code with comments 3) write explainer text like this

R code

library(dplyr)

# create dataframe the tidy way
df <- tibble(
    Col1 = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7),
    Col2 = c(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
)
print(df)

Link icons

Other link icons you can generate using header yaml include, info-circle, download, book, postcard, rss. We already use the github and linkedin link icons in about.qmd.

See the info yaml in the Ibis Quarto website for examples.

Icons

You should be able to use any of the standard Bootstrap 5 icons. And there are a lot of them! See the Quarto docs for details of how to implement this.

Fenced divs

You can add classes, attributes, and other identifiers to regions of content using divs and spans:

Borders

This content can be styled with a border

Callout notes

Note

Note that there are five types of callouts, including: note, tip, warning, caution, and important.

Tip with caption

Leave a tip in a caption box like this!

Warning without icon

This one is collapsed and has no icon

Important with custom caption

A simplified callout note

In the margin

Look right

Linking internally

Quite easy, just specify the relative folder path to get there from here: ../../about.qmd

Embed content as HTML
