When you create a new "Quarto Website" it creates the shell of a website with some starter pages.

For this class, you should update your project in the following ways ...

## Update your quarto file

Replace your `_quarto.yml` file with the contents below. Update the `title` as appropriate.


``` {.yaml filename="_quarto.yml"}
project:
  type: website
  render:
  - "01*.qmd"
  - "*.qmd"

website:
  title: "Short site name"
  sidebar:
    contents:
      - href: index.qmd
        text: Home
      - auto: "*.qmd"

format:
  html:
    theme: cosmo
    css: styles.css
    toc: true
    df-print: paged
    code-overflow: wrap
```

## Data folders

Create two folders to hold your data

- `data-original` is where you store original data that you don't want to edit or overwrite.
- `data-processed` is where you save any new outputs from your notebook.

## Quarto file names

Most projects will have at least three files:

- `index.qmd` is the home page of your site. It should have an explanation of the project and perhaps a summary of what you've learned.
- `01-cleaning.qmd` is where you prepare data for analysis. Cleaned files should be output from this file as .rds files into `data-processed`.
- `02-analysis.qmd` is where your analysis is done. It should run independently, meaning you should start by importing the cleaned data.

You can delete the `about.qmd` page that is created with the default project.
