Free event
Please join us for a chat about Quarto. Quarto is an open-source scientific and technical publishing system built on Pandoc. What does it look like? How do you use it? What can it do? How does it compare to RMarkdown? What does it mean for Python and Jupyter Notebooks? What about for open science, reproducibility, interoperability, and publishing?
Folks from NASA Openscapes will share their experiences using Quarto to enable data-intensive open science in the cloud, in conversation with R-Ladies Santa Barbara. Following an hour of conversation, demoing, and community Q&A, we’ll have another 20 minutes of informal chat and breakout rooms.
Panelists
Julie Lowndes is founder of Openscapes, and co-lead of NASA Openscapes with Erin Robinson. Julie is a marine ecologist turned open data scientist because she was so empowered by the R community.
