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...

XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library, designed to be scalable, flexible, portable and highly efficient. It supports regression, classification, ranking and user defined objectives, and runs on all major operating systems and cloud platforms. XGBoost works by implementing machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. It also offers parallel tree boosting (GBDT, GBRT or GBM) that can quickly and accurately solve many data science problems....

Most software libraries let you compute over the information you own and see inside of machines you control. However, this means that you cannot compute on information without first obtaining (at least partial) ownership of that information. It also means that you cannot compute using machines without first obtaining control over those machines. This is very limiting to human collaboration and systematically drives the centralization of data, because you cannot work with a bunch of data...
