RMarkdown (Rmd) was recently developed into “Quarto” (Qmd), precisely because they now support Python as well. I’ve used it a bit and it’s excellent.

But Rmd already supported python chunks (as well as other languages such as ruby, which seem to be missing from Qmd)

Quarto supports any language and works just fine. I have quarto blog posts for using APL as an example of a somewhat niche language.

I guess you have to add some plugin? I mean in Rmarkdown in Rstudio I just go ```{ruby} and I have a ruby block with nothing special installed. That doesn't work by default with Quarto.

In the Quarto front matter, you can choose to use a Jupyter backend, in which case any Jupyter kernel can be used to interpret code blocks. Many languages, including APL, have Jupyter kernels you can install.
