Markdown template for the Journal of Cheminformatics with CiTO support

We're not there quite yet, and we have to see the first submission based on this template to come in, but magic happened on Twitter this weekend (well, that's not unique). I am not sure how the discussion started, but I do know how it ended: we now have a first draft template for Journal of Cheminformatics articles in Markdown. Not just that, the template support CiTO annotation (doi:10.1186/s13321-020-00448-1). And not just citation annotation in the bibliography, the annotation is actually at citation level. Of course, our journal does not support that yet.

But the outcome is pretty awesome: the Markdown is linked to a BibTeX file, and citing articles in the Markdown is done by adding something like @somePaper, where 'somePaper' is the BibTeX key. And if you want to add CiTO intention annotation, you would prefix the key with the intention, like @uses_method_in:somePaper. And for the Journal of Cheminformatics template automatically put the intention in the reference list, like below:

Finally, a huge thanks to Albert Krewinkel for writing the Lua plugins for Pandoc to make this working! Next stop is RStudio rticles support.
