ggplot2 is a system written in R for declaratively creating graphics. It is based on The Grammar of Graphics, which focuses on following a layered approach to describe and construct visualizations or graphics in a structured manner. With ggplot2 you simply provide the data, tell ggplot2 how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use, and it will take care of the rest. ggplot2 is over 10 years old and is used by hundreds of thousands of people all over the world for...
Function-oriented Make-like declarative workflows for R
The targets package is a pipeline / workflow management tool in R, designed to coordinate multi‐step computational workflows in data science / statistics. It tracks dependencies between “targets” (computational steps), skips steps whose upstream data or code hasn’t changed, supports parallel computation, branching (dynamic generation of sub‐targets), file format abstractions, and encourages reproducible and efficient analyses. It’s something like GNU Make for R, but more integrated. ...
R Markdown is an R package for creating dynamic, reproducible documents that combine code (R, Python, SQL, etc.), results (figures, tables), and narrative text. Built on Knitr and Pandoc, it supports generating HTML, PDF, Word, slideshows, dashboards, and more. It’s widely used in data science and reproducible reporting workflows.
