Using .Rmd files in Quarto?

[aloboa]

I am starting to use Quarto to create a website. I have quite a number or R notebooks in .Rmd and .nb.html formats. Is there a way I can include these .Rmd files in the Quarto-generated website (eg as posts) or should I copy-paste and adapt each.Rmd file into a .qmd file? An obvious solution would be to make a new .qmd file for each post with just a link to each .nb.html file, but this is not nice.

I don't think you need to do anything. You can just include Rmd files directly in a Quarto website without anything special. The qmd format is kind of a superset of Rmd.

You can also use a tool like jupytext if you have a bunch of formats to convert (no copy pasting!); it adds nice metadata to the qmd format, in my experience.
