Research direction

Start with the README, package metadata, exported-function documentation, and the pkgdown news menu referenced in the checklist. Run the listed urlchecker and devtools checks before preparing the CRAN submission. Done means the release checklist is complete, CRAN accepts the package, the blog post and GitHub release are published, and the development version is updated.
