Description

I think it would be really helpful to add information to the web page on how quarto differs from other tools such as JupyterBook and MystMD/JS so that it is easier to understand how is different from quarto in terms of scope, technical capabilities, and intended use cases. This would help when deciding which tool to choose for which job. I opened a similar issue in the mystmd tracker https://github.com/executablebooks/mystmd/issues/385

Also, it seems like the issues are not public in the quarto-web repo anymore, so I'm not able to suggest that there. Is there any chance these could be public again? I remember there was a response from @jjallaire regarding quarto versus jupyter book in issue 11 but I can no longer access it.

No file or test is identified in the issue. Review the existing Quarto web documentation and the referenced MystMD issue 385 first, then determine where a comparison of Quarto, JupyterBook, and MystMD belongs. Done means publishing an accurate comparison of scope, capabilities, and use cases, and addressing whether the quarto-web issues can be public.
