tidyverse

The tidyverse is a set of packages that work in harmony because they share common data representations and API design. The tidyverse package is designed to make it easy to install and load core packages from the tidyverse in a single command. If you’re compiling from source, you can run pak::pkg system requirements("tidyverse") , to see the complete set of system packages needed on your machine. library(tidyverse) will load the core tidyverse packages: ggplot2, for data visualisation. dplyr, for data manipulation. tidyr, for data tidying. readr, for data import. purrr, for functional programming. tibble, for tibbles, a modern re-imagining of data frames. stringr, for strings. forcats, for factors. lubridate, for date/times. As well as the core tidyverse, installing this package also installs a selection of other packages that you’re likely to use frequently, but probably not in every analysis. This includes packages for: Working with specific types of vectors: hms, for times. Importing other types of data: haven, for SPSS, SAS and Stata files. httr, for web apis. jsonlite for JSON. readxl, for .xls and .xlsx files. rvest, for web scraping. xml2, for XML. Modelling broom, for turning models into tidy data
