Updated website with the new Hugo Blox, deploying directly in GitHub, without all the "old" R blogdown infrastructure. Still need to migrate most of the content, but I did everything in a couple of hours!

If you use R, try blogdown/Quarto.
It turns your code markdown into beautiful static websites.
Bonus: It teaches you about site structure and deployment.

It turned out that if you don't maintain your website built with blogdown actively, the version updates of blogdown, Hugo, and Go can cause issues, and it'll take a while to resolve them.

5️⃣ Use Tools like ‘blogdown’
For R users, the blogdown package is a game-changer for creating sleek websites.
Bonus: It renders your R/Python code beautifully into HTML!

I built my website with #blogdown, bookdown.org/yihui/blogdown/. Were I to start from scratch, I'd probably just use #quarto, quarto.org/docs/websites/.

Spent the morning working on a @wheredoesitstem section on my personal website!
FOR NO COST, I created all of this using the blogdown package in R (thanks @xieyihui, @apreshill !)
To make these episodes more accessible, I’ll be working to add episode transcripts to each post!

Introducing {quartize} - a VS Code extension born from migrating my blog to #Quarto!
Miss blogdown::new_post()? This brings that smooth blog post creation experience to VS Code (and Positron soon?)
My first VS Code extension - feedback welcome!

I was similarly skeptical, but having used it, it's essentially a much improved version of blogdown where some of the confusing things have been clarified & simplified. For example, no need to screw around with HTML/CSS hacks to set things up.

4. Quarto is actively maintained. I'm only comparing this to the R Markdown ecosystem (blogdown/bookdown/etc.) that have been suggested in this thread. Those may be maintained but to varying degrees. Responsiveness will be faster with Quarto b/c 🆕

Rmarkdown (maybe blogdown in your specific case) is still by far the better option, even if you code the analysis in Python. Quarto feels like its poor demo.

se eu fizer duas coisas o meu sábado vai ser um sabado de sucesso
1. conseguir subir o meu blogdown e estruturar os posts em r por lá.
2. escrever um artigo pra newbies sobre o que é p valor, pro q ele serve, pro q ele não serve e como a gente deve usa-lo

No doubt. They’re lucky to have you. Btw, your blog post on blogdown Hugo helped me immensely when I started my blog 2 years ago. Thank you!

In case you're interested in making/updating your personal website:
I just updated mine using RStudio {blogdown}, @github, and @Netlify. Went with the beautiful Hugo Apéro theme this time. All thanks to @apreshill for the amazing instructions!

Finally pulled the trigger and switched my blog over to quarto. Quarto has several advantages over the old blogdown based setup, more details here in this quick post for the few people interested in the technical underpinnings of the blog. doodles.mountainmath.ca/post…

Finally migrating my blog from blogdown/Hugo to quarto. Last stumbling block is comments. Currently I am using Disqus, thinking of ditching it for giscus. Not many people comment, so probably not important. Any strong opinions on what comment system to use?

Después de 2 años pude actualizar mi sitio web. Elegí ahora un formato sencillo y me llevó toda la mañana por los cambios en Hugo themes.
Está hecho en R con el paquete Blogdown.
