 # Introduction
 
-Welcome to `posterdown::ids_poster`! This is my attempt to adapt the `posterdown` R package to the IDS Mannheim corporate design. Most features from R Markdown are available in this package such as Markdown section notation, figure captioning, and even citations like this one [@R-rmarkdown]. The rest of this example poster will show how you can insert typical conference poster features into your own document.

Most features from R Markdown are available in this package such as Markdown section notation, figure captioning, and even citations like this one [@R-rmarkdown]. The rest of this example poster will show how you can insert typical conference poster features into your own document, including emoji 😀 -- ASCII 🇺🇸, ZWJ-sequence 👨‍👨‍👦, and skin-tone-modifier ✊🏿 alike -- which is handy for CMC research posters.
