We Converted our Documentation to Quarto
summary
Converted a 120‑page Word user guide into Quarto using the pandoc convert step to markdown as the starting point, then tidied formatting with IDE keyboard shortcuts and code snippets (RStudio or VS Code). Version control moves to git and CI (GitHub Actions or GitLab pipelines) so a single commit publishes HTML PDF and Word one commit → three formats. Solves bilingual switching by adding a small JavaScript URL toggle and uses Quarto Pub or templates plus the report‑issue button to streamline collaboration.
