FWIW, I don't think the "lift" is currently probably worth it, but if we did want to switch to JupyterBook somewhere down the road, it looks like it takes Rmd pages so it would be a fast start-up.
Neat! The conversion would be a nice project (~2-3 days?) for someone who is interested in creating training material and learning about GitHub Actions.
Since it can read Rmd files directly, and GH actions is already documented, assuming we stuck with the Rmd files we have in theory it's a 30 minute project; someone with not a ton of experience still could probably get it up and running in a day.
It doesn't look like there are any good tools (ala pandoc) for a straight Rmd-to-MyST conversion, but with the VSCode extensions for Rmd and for MyST both installed and a MyST cheat sheet, I still can't see it taking much more than a few hours.

Good point – just 6 Rmd files, and it's mostly just the code blocks that will need conversion (if done by hand)
