For the deploy preview, we want to make sure it shows up at the equivalent of https://opensource.posit.co/blog/q/positron/:

@cindyytong I started this to make featured images for this post series, but happy to adjust on that:
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1pGjyPX0ZS0VAdIeHeoa_fgRp0deB4kqNIz4zI0Ba4OA/edit?usp=sharing

It seems to work best if you export from that to .svg.

Thank you! Made minor comments to link out to relevant docs since it's possible the reader might not be aware of Positron and features

Should we add a callout with short description of Positron in case someone has never heard of it?

@juliasilge Looks fine from my side. Since, it's future-dated you can merge whenever you are ready and CI will take care of publishing it on the right date.
