Not pictured, but the “R engine” is in fact, knitr: In rmarkdown, we are working in rmarkdown, and that uses knitr to talk to R and handle the document generation:īut with quarto, we have this general interface, where quarto can talk to different programming languages. Here are some not-particularly-well-drawn diagrams to illustrate this point. This means other pieces of software can use it to create their own literate programming documents. Quarto, instead of being an R package, is a separate piece of software, that you can call from the command line (terminal).
