Template - Install Quarto and some R packages specifying version

In this example the actions before the script were to install some R packages controlling which version was installed (for that we use remotes package). The actions of the script aftewards were to render a Quarto website, moving the content into the ‘public’ folder so that it is shown in our Gitlab pages
