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 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 workshop will provide a basic foundation to get a personal website started and develop the skills to continue building and maintaining your site. We'll rely on 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.

Prior knowledge of R, R Studio, Git, and GitHub is highly recommended. Consider attending our other workshops.
