Quarto Dashboards: from zero to publish in one hour
From R/Medicine 2025
You already analyze and summarize your data with R and Quarto. What’s next?
You can share your insights or allow others to make their own conclusions in eye-catching dashboards and straight-forward to author, design, and deploy Quarto Dashboards. With Quarto Dashboards, you can create elegant and production-ready dashboards using a variety of components, including static graphics, interactive widgets, tabular data, value boxes, text annotations, and more.
Additionally, with intelligent resizing of components, your Quarto Dashboards look great on devices of all sizes. And importantly, you can author Quarto Dashboards without leaving the comfort of your “home” – in plain text markdown with any text editor. In this one-hour demo we will build and publish a Quarto Dashboard – you can code-along or sit back and enjoy the show!
