Publishing Quarto Dashboards for FREE using GitHub Actions and GitHub Pages
In this video, we'll walk step-by-step through the process of creating and publishing a dashboard using Quarto, GitHub Actions, and GitHub Pages. In this video, we'll learn how to automate updates on a schedule of our choosing, manage R packages with renv, add custom theming, and leverage GitHub Actions for a seamless workflow without the need to ever render anything locally.
This video is video #1 of a six-video series (there's only six, not seven, oops - I misspoke in the video intro) aimed at making complex dashboard projects accessible and reproducible.
