Tidyplots offers a variety of continuous color schemes 🌈 Most of the continuous color schemes are adapted from Stéfan van der Walt and Nathaniel Smith (2015) and were designed to maximize accessibility for individuals with color vision deficiencies. #rstats #dataviz

Jan Broder Engler @jbengler.de · 20/09/2026

Tidyplots offers a variety of diverging color schemes 🌈 Diverging color schemes are great to represent data that diverges around a central midpoint, often a meaningful neutral value like zero, an average, or a baseline. #rstats #dataviz

On top of that, . and _ do not behave exactly the same. The magrittr pipe is still a little more flexible. But I got used to the base pipe quite quickly.

Jan Broder Engler @jbengler.de · 18/09/2026

In case you ever wondered about the differences between magrittr pipe and base pipe 🤔 This table is taken from a great stackoverflow answer by @GeorgKindermann stackoverflow.com/questions/6763302… #rstats #dataviz #phd

This is how you can add the mean and standard deviation to summarize the raw data points in your #tidyplots 🤩 Alternatively, you can also display the median, standard error of the mean, 95% confidence interval, and more. #rstats #dataviz #phd

These are the discrete color schemes in #tidyplots 🌈 The default scheme `colors_discrete_friendly` is inspired by Okabe and Ito (2008) and was designed to be accessible for individuals with color vision deficiencies. #rstats #dataviz #phd

Too many vector shapes can slow down PDF performance. This is how you can selectively rasterize data points in #tidyplots 🪩 In this example, I used 100 DPI for demonstration purposes. In practice, you would typically use 300 DPI for better quality 😉 #rstats #dataviz #phd

library(tidyplots)

tidyplot(x = month, y = max_temperature) |>
add_data_points_beeswarm(white_border = TRUE, rasterize = TRUE, rasterize_dpi = 100)

When you execute a #tidyplots color scheme like `colors_continuous_viridis` in the Console, you will get a preview in the RStudio Viewer pane 🌈 Pro tip: You can highlight and copy individual hex codes directly from the Viewer pane. #rstats #dataviz #phd
