Technical Notes
The entire book was written in R Markdown, using the bookdown,
rmarkdown, and knitr packages. All figures were made with ggplot2,
with the help of several add-on packages including cowplot, geofacet, ggforce, ggmap, ggrepel, ggridges, hexbin, patchwork, sf, statebins, tidybayes, and treemapify. Color manipulations were done with
the colorspace and colorblindr packages. For many of these packages,
the current development version is required to compile all parts of the
book.
The source code for the book is available at https://github.com/clauswilke/dataviz. The book also requires a
supporting R package, dviz.supp, whose code is available at https://github.com/clauswilke/dviz.supp.
The book was last compiled using the following environment:
