Tufte style. See <https://rstudio.github.io/tufte/> for a comprehensive
example.

```

You can also install the development version of **tufte** from
[GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

## Getting help

There are two main places to get help:

1.  The [RStudio
    community](https://forum.posit.co/c/quarto-r-markdown/10) is a
    friendly place to ask any questions about rmarkdown and the R
    Markdown family of packages. Use tag **tufte** in your post.

2.  [Stack
    Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/r-markdown+tufte)
    is a great source of answers to common rmarkdown questions. It is
    also a great place to get help, once you have created a reproducible
    example that illustrates your problem.
