ERES from European Real Estate Society (ERES)

Abstract: In this paper I discuss a new framework of open source software for writing articles, reports, research notes, webpages, blogs, and many more. The framework is centred around Quarto, a program that integrates formatted text and data analysis in R, Python, or other software and can output a wide range of formats. As compared to traditional solutions, the framework offers major advantages in terms of reproducibility as well as the streamlining of workflows. Because of the many output options, the framework can serve traditional, 'print'-oriented publication processes where one needs to submit a Word-, LaTeX- or PDF-document. At the same time, however, the framework supports HTML-based, web-oriented publication processes and even integrates the respective publication workflow. In this realm, the framework allows for interactivity and embedding of multimedia elements, thus strongly utilizing the advantages of digital media.The paper will give an overview of the framework and discuss some potential applications in real estate research and real estate industry.
