How to produce a standalone html using embed-resources:true without generating an additional _files folder?

[noschenk]

Description

Dear community,

I have a question: I try to produce a self-contained html from my quarto. I use RStudio version ‘2024.12.1.563’ with quarto.
My goal is to produce a .html file which works without the corresponding _files folder next to it.
Is this still possible at all? I know it has been possible 2 years ago, but now unsure if this is still possible.
And if yes, might you help me to find my mistake?

Any help is appreciated!

My problem is, that I do get a nice html output, but if I copy it, the corresponding _files folder is automatically copied with. This gets a problem when I try to share it, I would very much prefer to just share one single file.

Already knowing if this theoretically should be possible would help me :)

Your YAML is not valid:

- output:
+ format:
  html:
    embed-resources: true
    self-contained-math: true

Maybe a second reading of the get started guide could help: https://quarto.org/docs/get-started/
