So, is the purpose of Quarto primarily for data viz? It isn't something that for example you'd use for summary stats unless have some visual component with it?

Hi Maria! You can use Quarto for all sorts of things, including reporting summary stats. For example, I use Quarto to write scientific papers and to report survey results on a webpage for my husband's class. I'd say the purpose of Quarto is to provide you with tools to reproducibly report something.

I was wondering why David's output was showing up in the RStudio Viewer tab, but mine was not; my rendered output was going to a web-page. Our YAMLs were the same, so I wondered if it was a setting, which it was: Tools --> Global Options --> R Markdown --> Show output preview in: Viewer Pane.
