Render *.qmd to markdown (gfm)

quarto render *.qmd --to gfm

Render *.qmd to pdf?

quarto render *.qmd --to typst

Details

- *.qmd, the preferred method is: use quarto, .qmd file, with **format: typst** - Why? format: typst works better than using latex, lualatex engines - If need to use latex engines, use **format: pdf**

Render *.qmd to html?

quarto render *.qmd --to html

• Use format: html
• typst engine does not support html

How to render *.typ to pdf or html?

• At present use cli typst

How to convert *.typ to markdown?

pandoc file.typ -t markdown -o file.md 

• PROBLEM: often much cleanup; worse lingering typt command (in the file.md) may badly trip quarto render.

(tech_notes) Where is my file?

• *.qmd in qmd/ is preferred to store NOTES
• *.typ in typ/ only for MATH or FANCY, as needed
