This is a DataCamp course: The expansive ecosystem of R packages may seem daunting at first glance, but don't worry! Acquiring the skill to develop your own R package is invaluable, regardless of whether you collaborate on your code with others. With a range of modern tools and packages at your fingertips, it's simpler than ever.
<h2>Discover the Benefits of Package Creation</h2>
Creating a package allows you to document your functions, enhancing their quality. It provides a formal structure for your code and analyses, enabling function improvement while tests verify no previous functionality is disrupted.
<h2>Practice Using R Package Development Tools</h2>
This course will guide you through these concepts, and as a bonus, you'll develop your own package focused on unit conversion. You'll learn how to use the devtools, usethis, roxygen2, available, and testthat packages as well as rmarkdown to speed up and improve your package development workflow.
