quarto-webr v0.4.1 Released - Vivid Montage!

After taking a brief break to work on releasing the {quarto-pyodide} extension, we’re back with a new release of {quarto-webr}. In version 0.4.1, we’ve focused on upgrading the embedded version of webR to v0.3.1. We’ve also added a new read-only code cell option that prevents changes to code inside of an interactive context. Lastly, we’ve documented the best practices for using data within {webr-r} code blocks.
