 \begin{messagebox}{Note on rules}{attentioncolour}{\icattention}{black}
 Although the core team provides a lot of rules shipped with \arara\ out of the box, with the possibility of extending the set by adding more rules, some users might find this decision rather annoying, since other tools have most of their rules hard-coded, making the automation process even more transparent. However, since \arara\ does not rely on a specific automation or compilation scheme, it becomes more extensible. The use of directives in the source code make the automation steps more fluent, which allows the specification of complex workflows much easier.
