Team Needs:
|
Knowledge of R and familiarity with various plotting packages like ggplot is a plus. But enthusiasm is most necessary ingredient |

Description:
|
The project will be dedicated to build a R library which takes inspiration from already existing visualization libraries like ggplot, tmap, etc. but tweaks the features to make it publication ready with minimal inputs from the programmer. The library will also include statistical tests as an inherent attribute that could be associated with various plots depending on the input datasets. Hence, having a combination of both features – aesthetic visualization and statistical testing, will make the library a go-to tool for researchers across all domains. At the end of the project, the library built will be sent for its release to CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network) as an open source package, and the team members will be named as co-authors and contributors of the project |
