gtsummary is an R package for creating elegant, customizable, publication-ready summary tables of datasets and statistical models. It provides concise code to produce demographic tables (tbl_summary()), regression result tables, and more, with flexible styling options for reporting.

hrbrthemes is a focused ggplot2 theme package with an emphasis on typography, layout precision, and visual polish. It includes themes like theme_ipsum and Font scales tailored for clean, high‑quality production graphics.

Python project with goal to provide FOSS library to extract, analyse and visualise data in a 3D fashion. The instance will connect to a data source, ods sheet, csv, sql DB, pyodbc the instance will analyse and/or transform the data to be presented to the visualisation functionality the instance will visualise the data in a 3D fashion, likely using third party FOSS

janitor provides simple, convenient tools for data cleaning, formatting, and exploration in R. It is especially useful for cleaning messy data frames, removing duplicates, formatting column names, and producing frequency tables in a tidy workflow.

This part of the book teaches you how to leverage the plotly R package to create a variety of interactive graphics. There are two main ways to creating a plotly object: either by transforming a ggplot2 object (via ggplotly()) into a plotly object or by directly initializing a plotly object with plot_ly()/plot_geo()/plot_mapbox(). Both approaches have somewhat complementary strengths and weaknesses, so it can pay off to learn both approaches. Moreover, both approaches are an implementation of the Grammar of Graphics and both are powered by the JavaScript graphing library plotly.js, so many of the same concepts and tools that you learn for one interface can be reused in the other. Any graph made with the plotly R package is powered by the JavaScript library plotly.js. The plot_ly() function provides a ‘direct’ interface to plotly.js with some additional abstractions to help reduce typing.

This is an R package designed for producing beautiful and interactive 2D and 3D visualizations — especially maps and terrain renderings — using elevation/gridded data and ray-tracing / hill-shading methods. At its core, rayshader takes a matrix of elevations and applies shading, texture, ambient occlusion, overlays, and light modeling (ray shade, lambertian shading, etc.) to produce realistic relief maps. Users can rotate, zoom, and animate the scenes or script camera trajectories programmatically. It supports outputting high-quality renders via path tracing (using a companion package) and also offers depth-of-field (“cinematic blur”) effects to bring visual focus into scenes. It allows layering relational data (roads, points, polygons) on top of the shaded terrain, so you can combine spatial data overlays with the 3D model. The package can export models to 3D formats like STL or OBJ for 3D printing or external rendering.

reticulate is an R package from Posit that creates seamless interoperability between R and Python. It lets you call Python modules, classes, and functions from within R, automatically translating between R and Python data structures. Useful for combining Python tooling with R projects, data analysis, and RMarkdown reports.

see is an R package that serves as the visualization component of the easystats ecosystem, providing plotting utilities to produce publication-ready visualizations of statistical model parameters, diagnostics, predictions, and performance metrics. It works in conjunction with other easystats packages (such as parameters, performance, modelbased, bayestestR, etc.) to convert model outputs or summary objects into visual forms (dot-and-whisker plots, diagnostic plots, residual plots, etc.). It includes themes, scales, geoms for ggplot2, and custom color palettes to make visual summaries more informative and attractive.

sf is an R package that implements “simple features” (standardized vector spatial data) for R. It allows spatial vector data (points, lines, polygons etc.) to be represented as records in data frames (or tibbles) with geometry list columns, and performs spatial operations (geometry operations, coordinate reference system transformations, reading/writing spatial data, integration with spatial databases etc.). It interfaces to GDAL, GEOS, PROJ libraries for robust operations. Reading and writing spatial vector data via many file formats/drivers through GDAL, and spatial databases (PostGIS etc.) Supports all standard simple feature geometry types (points, linestrings, polygons, multi-geometries etc.) in various dimensions (XY, XYZ, XYM, XYZM).

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. Skipping computation for up-to-date targets so that unchanged parts of the workflow are not recomputed. Targets can represent files or R objects, and tracking file changes etc is incorporated.

tidyr is a core tidyverse package designed to help reshape and clean messy datasets into tidy data—i.e., data frames where each variable is a column, each observation is a row, and each value is a cell.
