Open Source R HTML/XHTML Software

Paginate the HTML Output of R Markdown with CSS for Print. You only need a modern web browser (e.g., Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge) to generate PDF. No need to install LaTeX to get beautiful PDFs. This R package stands on the shoulders of two giants to support typesetting with CSS for R Markdown documents: Paged.js and ReLaXed (we only borrowed some CSS from the ReLaXed repo and didn't really use the Node package).

Welcome to Posterdown! This is my attempt to provide a semi-smooth workflow for those who wish to take their RMarkdown skills to the conference world. Many creature comforts from RMarkdown are available in this package such as Markdown section notation, figure captioning, and even citations like this one (Allaire, Xie, McPherson, et al. 2018). The rest of this example poster will show how you can insert typical conference poster features into your own document. Posterdown was created as a proof-of-concept (to myself) that it is possible to make a beautiful poster using open-source reproducible code.
