Description
Bug description
Trying to generate a listing or custom listing in formats other than a Quarto project: website silently fail and doesn't do anything.
It would be great to be able to leverage listings outside of websites to generate tables, cards, grids, etc for single-page applications/reports without having to use R/Python. If it's not reasonable to add this feature to non-websites, it would be good to error/warn the user that it's not doing anything.
Minimal example - works on a website, but fails silently without the _quarto.yml file using Quarto: 0.9.600
---
format: html
listing:
- id: table
type: table
contents:
title: "My cool report"
subtitle: "It has neat things in it"
date: "2022-06-23"

::: {#table}
