R Packages, good vibes only

at The Use of R in Official Statistics - uRos2025, keynote talk.

Organizations using R often maintain packages answering their specific needs for ingesting data from particular formats, performing specialized statistical analyses, or producing branded reports. Such Institutional toolboxes are time savers and help with continuity of organizations’ activities. These toolboxes can be made even more useful and delightful to work with through well-designed curation that cultivates quality at both the package and collection level. In this talk, I will explain how your organization can apply lessons, guidance and tooling from the rOpenSci package review system to strengthen code and interface quality, and improve statistical robustness; how your organization can rely on R-universe to officially onboard your organization’s packages, to then easily distribute and showcase them.

Find out how to create them realistically, without too much hassle.
