 ## Features
 ### Pipable syntax
-`kableExtra` is NOT a table generating package. It is a package that can **"add features"** to a `kable()` output using a syntax that every useR loves - the [pipes `%>%`](http://r4ds.had.co.nz/pipes.html). We see similar approaches to deal with plots in packages like `ggvis` and `plotly`. There is no reason why we cannot use it with tables.

 ### Unified functions for both HTML and PDF
-Most functionalities in `kableExtra` can work in both HTML and PDF. In fact, as long as you specifies format in `kable()` (which can be set globally through option `knitr.table.format`), functions in this package will pick the right way to manipulate the table be themselves. As a result, if users want to left align the table, `kable(...) %>% kable_styling(position = "left")` will work in both HTML and PDF.

As a result, if users want to left align the table, `kable(...) %>% kable_styling(position = "left")` will work in both HTML and PDF. Recently, we also introduced a new `kbl()` function acting as an alternative to `kable` but provides better documentation and format detection.
