'BEAST2' () is a widely used
Bayesian phylogenetic tool, that uses DNA/RNA/protein data
and many model priors to create a posterior of jointly estimated
phylogenies and parameters.
'BEAST2' is commonly accompanied by 'BEAUti 2', 'Tracer' and 'DensiTree'.
'babette' provides for an alternative workflow of using
all these tools separately. This allows doing complex Bayesian
phylogenetics easily and reproducibly from 'R'.
