+\section{Introduction}\label{introduction}
+
+Welcome to \texttt{posterdown} ! This is my attempt to provide a
+semi-smooth workflow for those who wish to take their \texttt{RMarkdown}
+skills to the conference world. Many creature comforts from
+\texttt{RMarkdown} are available in this package such as
+\texttt{Markdown} section notation, figure captioning, and even
+citations like this one \autocite{holden_identifying_2012} The rest of
+this example poster will show how you can insert typical conference
+poster features into your own document.
+
+\section{Study Site}\label{study-site}
+
+Here is a map made to show the study site using \texttt{ggplot2},
+\texttt{ggspatial}, and \texttt{sf}. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
+\autocite{middleton_geological_nodate} consectetur adipiscing elit, sed
+do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Phasellus
+vestibulum lorem sed risus ultricies tristique nulla. Mauris vitae
+ultricies leo integer malesuada nunc vel risus commodo. Suspendisse
+potenti nullam ac tortor vitae. Enim nunc faucibus a pellentesque sit
+amet porttitor eget. \vspace{15mm}

+\section{Objectives}\label{objectives}
+
+\large
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
+\tightlist
+\item
+  Easy to use reproducible poster design.
+\item
+  Integration with \texttt{RMarkdown}.
+\item
+  Easy transition from \texttt{posterdown} to \texttt{thesisdown} or
+  \texttt{rticles}
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\small
+
+\section{Methods}\label{methods}
+
+This package uses the same workflow approach as the \texttt{RMarkdown}
+you know and love. Basically it goes from RMarkdown \textgreater{} Knitr
+\textgreater{} Markdown \textgreater{} Pandoc \textgreater{} Latex
+\textgreater{} PDF
+
+\section{Results}\label{results}
+
+Usually you want to have a nice table displaying some important results
+that you have calcualated. In posterdown this is as easy as using the
+\texttt{kable} table formatting you are probably use to as per typical
+\texttt{RMarkdown} formatting. I suggesting checking out the
+\texttt{kableExtra} package and its in depth documentation on
+customizing these tables found
+\href{https://haozhu233.github.io/kableExtra/awesome_table_in_pdf.pdf}{here}.

+\section{Next Steps}\label{next-steps}
+
+There is still \textbf{A LOT} of work to do on this package which
+include (but are note limited to):
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\tightlist
+\item
+  Better softcoding for front end user options in YAML
+\item
+  Images in the title section for logo placement which is a common
+  attribut to posters as far as I have come to know.
+\item
+  Figure out compatiability with \texttt{natbib} which wasn't working
+  during the initial set up.
+\item
+  MUCH BETTER PACKAGE DOCUMENTATION. For example, there is nothing in
+  the README\ldots{}
+\item
+  Include References section only if initiated by the user like in
+  RMarkdown.
+\end{itemize}
+
