Epic: New Project Wizard Part 2

petetronic commented 2 months ago

Following on from the initial New Project Wizard work for Beta in #2110, we plan to add additional project types. Examples of other project types that we need to discuss include:

Python

[ ] Data Analysis Project
[ ] Flask Project
[ ] Pytorch

R

[ ] Tidy Models
[ ] Shiny App

Quarto

[ ] Empty project (i.e., Untitled .qmd file)
[ ] Blog
[ ] Website
[ ] Presentation

Other

[ ] Git: Select Repository
[ ] Empty: Select Folder
[ ] Multi-language project (e.g. R and Python)

Improvements

[ ] https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/3131
[ ] assess accessibility of Project Wizard UI (keyboard navigation, screen reader, etc.)
[ ] Choose the language for Jupyter Notebooks (currently defaults to Python)

Hello!

I am just chiming in with additional thoughts on the Quarto Project Wizard. Please let me know if this is the relevant thread for this feature request

Currently, in RStudio when selecting File > New File > Quartio Presentation you get a wizard that lets you pick the different types of presentation outputs (Reveal JS, Beamer, PowerPoint)

however, in positron, when doing ctrl + shift + p > Quarto: New Presentation there doesn't seem to be a detailed project wizard for this format and it defaults to Reveal JS

So I think it would be wonderful to include support for different presentation outputs similar to how RStudios provides support for Quarto Presentations

Hey Ana, this is a good spot for feedback on the Project Wizard, so you're all good! If ever in doubt, you can start by posting a discussion and we can direct you to relevant issues or we can create issues from there as needed 🙂

The current behaviour you're seeing via ctrl + shift + p > Quarto: New Presentation is provided by the Quarto VS Code extension, which looks to be specific to Revealjs at this time.

We intend to provide better interaction with Quarto project types in Positron's Project Wizard, so we appreciate you voicing your interest in Quarto Presentation support. I've added that project type to our list in this issue's description. Thank you for sharing your feedback!
