+
+## Author Notes
+
+I'm still a beginner in terms of my Rust skills so I'm _definitely... probably_ sure that there are edge cases within
+this preprocessor, and I'm sure that the code could be extra performant.
+
+## Installation
+
+**Install Through Cargo**
+
+```shell
+$ cargo install mdbook-template
+```
+
+**Add the following line into your `book.toml`**
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.template]
+```
+
+**You're good to go! Continue building your mdbook normally!**
+
+```shell
+$ mdbook build
+```
+
+## About
+
+Being based on the `{{#include ... }}` feature of mdbook, mdbook-template allows you to use familiar syntax to include
+files while passing in arguments to allow for dynamic generation of text.
+
+Given the following directory structure
+
+```text
+book.toml
+src
+├── one.md
+├── two.md
+├── two
+│   └── three.md
+├── images
+│   ├── ferris.png
+│   └── corro.png
+└── SUMMARY.md
+```
+
+If we wanted to include the images `ferris.png` and `corro.png` within all the files through a footer, we'd have to copy
+the same piece of markdown/code in every file and set a unique path back to the `images/` directory.
+
+This is where `mdbook-template` can help.
+
+Through the addition of a `footer.md`, you can define a common template that every page will be able to reference with a
+relative path back to the images to ensure they are properly displayed.
+
+## Example
+
+```text
+book.toml
+src
+├── one.md
+├── two.md
+├── two
+│   └── three.md
+├── images
+│   ├── ferris.png
+│   └── corro.png
+├── templates
+│   └── footer.md
+└── SUMMARY.md
+```

+Further examples are included within the [](/examples) section which demonstrate a variety of usages.

+## Acknowledgement
+
+This preprocessor is heavily based off the
+[`links.rs`](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/src/preprocess/links.rs) file within
+[mdbook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook) itself. I definitely wouldn't have been able to mock up something like
+this without the strong foundations that mdbook already implemented.
