Core Webinar Series: Build Your Personal Website With Quarto

¾«¶«´«Ã½

CHICAGO—Core is pleased to present the four-part webinar series “Build Your Personal Website with Quarto." Are you interested in sharing your work, such as scholarship, creative work, and other projects, and increasing your online visibility? Creating a personal website allows you to highlight yourself and your work, develop an online presence that connects people to you and your work, and share your thoughts in a blog or other pages. Having a personal website is a great way for consultants or speakers to market their services and develop a portfolio of past work; for researchers and scholars to share their publications, including archiving for green open access; for public intellectuals to write blog posts and direct readers to their other writings; and for creatives to highlight their work in various formats and media. This four-part webinar series will provide a basic foundation to get a personal website started and develop the skills to continue building and maintaining your site. The webinar will revolve around Quarto and GitHub Pages: Quarto makes publishing websites simple while providing a lot of customizability for users interested in going deeper, and GitHub Pages allows users to publish their websites for free.
