This is a post with executable code.

```{r}
1 + 1



6. Render your document only (not the full quarto project) to preview it.

7. When you are finished, stage, commit and push your `index.qmd` and `image.jpg` only, do **NOT** include any of the
   built files (they should be ignored by git automatically though).

8. Your fork on GitHub will now be ahead of the `rdatatable-community/The-Raft` from which you've branched and you
   should see the option to `Contribute`. Doing so will create a Pull Request, once merged the post will be published in
   due course.
