Migrating from Medium to Quarto
An Open-Source Computational Documentation and Blogging Platform
This an abridged version of the story, originally published at:
Medium saw a surge of Data Science material from around 2017. During that time, publications like Towards Data Science rose to become one of the most popular on the platform.
However for scientific, code or in general technical writing the platform has poor support for everyday features that we rely from code highlighting, reference management to displaying interactive visualisations.
Having weighed the potential discovery benefits of being on Medium relative to the flexibility of using a modern writing platform, today I made the switch to Quarto.
This post goes through the issues with *Medium* and how a combination of Quarto and Cloudflare Pages offers a much better experience. Visit the Curious Data Explorer blog for details on how.
