Top 5 R data-visualisation Projects

data-visualisation

  1. ggplot2

    An implementation of the Grammar of Graphics in R

    Project mention: Debugging Compiled Code for R with Positron | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-29

    Pardon me for shooting from the hip here, but IMO if you're using R for something radically different than statistical analysis and data visualization, there might be another tool/language that's more purpose-suited.

    > As someone who basically uses R as a nice LISP-y scripting language to orchestrate calling low-level compiled code from other languages

    When I read this, I think, would `bash` or something equally portable/universally installed work?

    R is a beautiful thing when limited to its core uses (I use it every day ([0]). But in my experience, the more we build away from those core uses, the more brittleness we introduce. I wish the Posit team would focus on the core R experience, resolve some of the hundreds of open issues on its core packages in a timely way, [1,2] and just generally play to R's strengths.
