Build a Free Professional Portfolio Website with Quarto | CCIDM

Build a Free Professional Portfolio Website with Quarto

Part of the Spring 2025 CCIDM Virtual Workshop Series, this hands-on session focuses on planning and launching a professional portfolio website with Quarto—no prior coding required. You’ll learn how to organize résumé/CV content, projects, and publications into a cohesive site, apply custom styling with SCSS and themes, and publish your work using GitHub Pages for a credible, public-facing presence.

By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to assemble a complete Quarto site from existing materials, integrate analyses/reports/dashboards created in Quarto, tailor layout and appearance with SCSS and custom themes, deploy the site via GitHub Pages, and generate an R résumé using the vitae package—capabilities that help students and job seekers present a polished personal brand quickly.
