Is it possible to publish a markdown document to confluence with conflr

[statquant]

Hello, I'd like to do the following: when I create a project repo I usually create the README.md from a README.Rmd, now I'd like to be able to render my Rmd document into md, and later on to publish it to confluence.
I have the impression that with conflr I need to directly publish to confluence.
I am assuming that conflr uses an 'intermediary' md document, but I might be making a mistake, so my question is, can I publish a markdown document with conflr ?

Interesting. Things are a bit more complicated than you think; conflr depends on some pre-knit processings, so you need to render the markdown with conflr anyway. But, maybe you can just change the markdown file's extension to .Rmd and add a front matter containing at least title.
