Cross-referencing

Sections https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/cross-references.html#sections

To reference a section, add a #sec- identifier to any heading. For example:

## Introduction {#sec-introduction}

See @sec-introduction for additional context.

Note that when using section cross-references, you will also need to enable the number-sections option (so that section numbering is visible to readers). For example:

---
title: "My Document"
number-sections: true
---

Installing extensions

Extensions (e.g. quarto-ext/fontawesome for icons) have to be installed with every new project (as far as I know). Quick tutorial for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8EOVOjX13Y

Web

I found the following to be helpful in migrating my personal website from distill to Quarto:

  • Code and content for andrewheiss.com
  • Porting a distill blog to quarto by Danielle Navarro
  • Customizing Your Quarto Website by Patrick Mobley
    • Patrick also provides a good list of examples/inspo.
  • Customizing Quarto Websites by Sam Csik
