Projects

Quarto Projects are a generic facility not tied to websites, that nevertheless provide some important features for creating websites and books:

• A way to render all or some of the files in a directory with a single command.

• A way to share YAML configuration across multiple files.

• The ability to redirect output artifacts to another directory.

• The ability to freeze rendered output (e.g. don’t re-execute an .Rmd or .ipynb) either unqualified or tied to the content of the source file (via hash).

For example, here is a _quarto.yml config file for a website project:

project:
  title: "Quarto Demo"
  type: website
  output-dir: _site

format:
  html:
    theme: cosmo
    toc: true
    
freeze: auto

• Render files (globs)

• Execution directory and path resolution
