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...

...It spans foundational math and statistics through data wrangling, visualization, machine learning, and practical project organization. The content emphasizes hands-on understanding by pairing narrative notes with runnable examples, making it useful for both self-study and classroom settings. Because it aggregates topics in one place, learners can move linearly or jump into specific areas as needed during projects. The notes also highlight common pitfalls and good practices, which helps beginners adopt professional habits early. It’s a living resource that many students consult when revising fundamentals or exploring adjacent tools in the ecosystem.
