Teaching data visualization with R entirely in Quarto
summary
Unifies slides, website, live exercises and graded PDFs into a single Quarto workflow that removes hosted R servers by running code in the browser with Quarto Live, converts student submissions to clean PDFs with Typst, and deploys interactive demos as static apps with Shiny Live. Uses Reveal.js slides with custom CSS, requires duplicate theme settings for live HTML, and keeps interactive exercises as in-class or self-study activities while graded work is submitted as PDFs to Canvas. Deployment and reproducibility improve, but theme/debug friction remains.
