Purpose

ggblanket is a package of wrapper functions around the fantastic ggplot2 package.

The primary objective is to simplify ggplot2 visualisation.

Secondary objectives relate to:

  • Scope: cover the most useful 80% of what ggplot2 does
  • Design: produce well-designed visualisation by default
  • Alignment: use conventions generally aligned with ggplot2.

It is intended to be useful for all levels of experience from beginner to expert.

Installation

install.packages("ggblanket")

Example

library(dplyr)
library(ggblanket)
library(palmerpenguins)

penguins |>
  tidyr::drop_na(sex) |> 
  mutate(sex = stringr::str_to_sentence(sex)) |>
  gg_histogram(
    x = flipper_length_mm,
    col = sex,
    facet = species, 
    pal = c("#2596be", "#fc7c24"))
