Do I understand it correctly that MATLAB's Live Script is what R Markdown is for R? Otherwise how can I do what is done here https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/lesson-1.html in MATLAB?

Rik is correct! There is also the option for MATLAB publishing which you can find here.

In addition to recommendations to use a Live Script, starting in R2025a the MATLAB editor supports Markdown notation in addition to a preview showing the formatted Markdown file.
When you open a Markdown file in MATLAB, the Editor shows a preview of the file to the right of the Markdown file. As you make edits to the file, the Editor updates the preview. To close the preview, go to the View tab and in the Preview section, click the Markdown button off.
In the preview, Markdown and MATLAB code appears with syntax highlighting. The Editor does not render images from external web pages in the preview.
