A zsh Helper Script For Updating macOS RStudio Daily Electron + Quarto CLI Installs

RStudio’s macOS Electron build is coming along quite nicely and is blazing fast on Apple Silicon.

I like to install the dailies, well, daily!; and, of late, RStudio and Quarto are joined at the hip. As a result, I regularly found myself having to manually update Quarto CLI right after updating RStudio, so I made a small zsh script that will use the new RStudio dailies JSON API to grab the latest daily, and the GitHub JSON API to grab the latest Quarto release, then install them both.

Caveats and limitations are in the repo.
