Excited to announce a new #rstats package, Trelliscope, for interactive exploration of data frames of visualizations: trelliscope.org. This reimagines the older trelliscopejs package. It's ready for public evaluation - give it a try and let me know if you have feedback!

It's full of my learnings from many years.

🎉 My first big blog post after my parental leave is out! And yes, it's about color; and how smart data vis designers use it to create smart design hierarchies. Plus, I'll show you one of my fav charts (again): blog.datawrapper.de/emphasiz…
Have you used the {ggparty} + {parttree} combo to visualize and explain how decision trees work? The visualization has its limitations, but it works very well as a first approach #rstats #ggplot2 #ggparty #partree bit.ly/3pV0rSr

Today I'm updating the plotting docs for webR and it's so nice seeing the recent changes to its HTML canvas graphics device paying off. Letting the web browser handle text rendering is so nice. As far as I can tell everything just does what it's supposed to! #webr #rstats
