-# Introduction
-
-This package is designed to make the design of CRISPR-APEX experiments easier.
-\newline
-Such These experiments often require:
-
-* finding a CRISPR **set** to target a genomic **set**.
-* targeting the **flanks** of genomic loci rather than loci themselves.
-* **efficient** functions, which are provided by building on top of 
-    data.table and Biostrings.
