Glossaries for Markdown and Quarto Documents (DeBruine 2023)

Add glossaries to markdown and quarto documents by tagging individual words. Definitions can be provided inline or in a separate file.


There is a lot of necessary jargon to learn for coding. The goal of {glossary} is to provide a lightweight solution for making glossaries in educational materials written in quarto or R Markdown. This package provides functions to link terms in text to their definitions in an external glossary file, as well as create a glossary table of all linked terms at the end of a section.

See getting started for more details.
