The goal of tidyplots
is to streamline the creation of
publication-ready plots for scientific papers. It allows to gradually
add and refine plot elements, and provides precise control over
composition, style, and absolute sizes. By consistent use of the pipe
%>%
it simplifies the construction of advanced plotting pipelines.

I would like to thank Lars Binkle-Ladisch for our insightful discussions and for consistently challenging my decisions regarding the naming of functions and their arguments.
Many thanks to the R and tidyverse communities. tidyplots is built upon their software and coding paradigms, and it would not have been possible without their contributions.
tidyplots relies on several fantastic packages that handle all the heavy lifting behind the scenes. These include cli, dplyr, forcats, ggbeeswarm, ggplot2, ggpubr, ggrastr, ggrepel, glue, Hmisc, htmltools, lifecycle, patchwork, purrr, rlang, scales, stringr, tidyr, and tidyselect.
