...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 plotting. In most cases using ggplot2 starts with supplying a dataset and aesthetic mapping (with aes()); adding on layers (like geom_point() or geom_histogram()), scales (like scale_colour_brewer()), and faceting specifications (like facet_wrap()); and finally, coordinating systems. ggplot2 has a rich ecosystem of community-maintained extensions for those looking for more innovation. ...

purrr enhances R’s functional programming capabilities by providing a consistent set of tools for working with lists and vectors, enabling safer and more expressive iteration compared to base R’s loop functions.

ggthemes is an R package that provides extra themes, scales, and geoms for ggplot2. It supplements the default ggplot2 offerings by allowing users to apply special themes (e.g., inspired by classic publications, external visualization styles), additional scale functions, and specialized geoms or color scales. It is often used to make ggplot2 plots adhere to aesthetic styles from famous news outlets, scientific journals, or presentation decks. Additional color scales and palettes for discrete...

ggrepel is an R package that provides “smart” repulsion for text and label geoms in ggplot2. When placing text labels on a plot (e.g. labeling points), the labels can often overlap; ggrepel ensures labels don’t overlap (or overlap less) by repelling labels / pushing them away, adding connecting lines or nudges, etc. It improves the readability of plots, especially when many labels are present. Support for point and segment geoms (so labels can be connected by lines when moved). Supports both...

This R package accompanies Richard McElreath’s Statistical Rethinking (2nd edition), offering utilities to fit and compare Bayesian models using both MAP estimation (quap) and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo via RStan (ulam). It supports specifying models via explicit distributional assumptions, providing flexibility for advanced statistical workflows.
