\footcite command implementation needed

How much time till the \footcite implementation? I need it so bad for my thesis. Thanks for all the hard work!

You can directly use \cite with a note style which actually creates a footnote. CSL's \cite is more like biblatex's \autocite. It chooses whether to use \footnote or not depending on the class (=note/in-text) attribute of the <style>.

BTW, \footcite is already added as an alias of \cite, though it might not be documented yet.

Yeah, FWIW, from the beginning, CSL was designed to be agnostic on output style, and so have the notion of automatic footnoting of relevant citations. It's similar to the biblatex autocite commands in that respect.

I've tried using a footnote style with this and it still showed the citations inline. Am I missing something?

Which version of the package are you using? Can you provide a minimal example as in the bug report issue template?
