easystats: An R Framework for Easy Statistical Modeling, Visualization, and Reporting

What is easystats?

easystats is a collection of R packages, which aims to provide a unifying and consistent framework to tame, discipline, and harness the scary R statistics and their pesky models.

However, there is not (yet) an unique “easystats” way of doing data analysis. Instead, start with one package and, when you’ll face a new challenge, do check if there is an easystats answer for it in other packages. You will slowly uncover how using them together facilitates your life. And, who knows, you might even end up using them all.

Installation

TypeSourceCommand
ReleaseCRANinstall.packages("easystats")
Developmentr-universeinstall.packages("easystats", repos = "https://easystats.r-universe.dev")
DevelopmentGitHubremotes::install_github("easystats/easystats")

Finally, as easystats sometimes depends on some additional packages for specific functions that are not downloaded by default. If you want to benefit from the full easystats experience without any hiccups, simply run the following:

easystats::install_suggested()

Citation

To cite the package, run the following command:

citation("easystats")

Getting started

Each easystats package has a different scope and purpose. This means your best way to start is to explore and pick the one(s) that you feel might be useful to you. However, as they are built with a “bigger picture” in mind, you will realize that using more of them creates a smooth workflow, as these packages are meant to work together. Ideally, these packages work in unison to cover all aspects of statistical analysis and data visualization.
