Quarto the Assassin

Jeffrey S. Racine ()

A chapter in Teaching Econometrics, 2026, pp 319-335 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract My interest in open source research tools has a long arc, and the tools I adopt evolve as new and improved approaches surface (Racine & Hyndman, 2002; Meredith & Racine, 2009; Racine, 2012). A recent development brings to mind overused superlatives like “game-changer”, among others, and I suspect you will agree “100%” that one recent development belongs in either the “Assassin” or “Saturn” category, or perhaps both (the latter being associated with consuming one’s progeny as prophecy had it that Saturn would be overthrown by one of his sons, so in response, he devoured them upon birth). In this chapter we examine how Quarto can be used to create dynamic reveal.js presentations that are simply unrivaled, anywhere, period (“100%”, a “game-changer”). As such, and particularly for those accustomed to the Beamer slide format, the adoption of these new tools may be of particular interest. This document, naturally, is authored in Quarto, and the Quarto script for this document and the reveal.js slides discussed below are available at https://github.com/JeffreyRacine/rch.
