JPE Report Template

Required Tools to use Template

1. Install Quarto to compile the report.
   1. Quarto works more like latex and less then Word: you need to include all inputs to the document (like pictures) if sharing with others, or those elements will not appear.
   2. Given that sharing here works via git, you will have to commit all the files I need to compile your report.
2. git
3. VScode: you should install the markdown paste extension to easily paste screenshots into the .qmd file.

Outline

• clone this repo to a findable location on your computer (maybe ~/JPE-replications?). Click on the green button "Code"
• If so, you will have ~/JPE-replications/JPE-Authorname-12345678 on your machine. You will work inside this folder.
• In your assignment email, there was a link to a dropox folder. Download and unzip as replication-package into this repository. That is, your repo should look like this after you downloaded the pacakge:

.
├── generated
├── images
├── replication-package
├── src
└── test

(notice - the final two folders src and test are part of my toolbox to pre-process packages and you should not touch those folders)

Recommended workflow

1. Get VScode
2. install markdown paste extension
