*Accelerating ggplot2*
`ggforce` is a package aimed at providing missing functionality to
`ggplot2` through the extension system introduced with `ggplot2` v2.0.0.
Broadly speaking `ggplot2` has been aimed primarily at explorative data
visualization in order to investigate the data at hand, and less at
providing utilities for composing custom plots a la
[D3.js](https://d3js.org). `ggforce` is mainly an attempt to address
these “shortcoming” (design choices might be a better description). The
goal is to provide a repository of geoms, stats, etc. that are as well
documented and implemented as the official ones found in `ggplot2`.
## Installation
You can install the released version of ggforce from
[CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org) with:
``` r
install.packages("ggforce")
```
And the development version from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with:
``` r
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("thomasp85/ggforce")
```
## Features
`ggforce` is by design a collection of features with the only
commonality being their tie to the `ggplot2` API. Because of this an
overview of all features would get too long for a README. The package
has a [website](https://ggforce.data-imaginist.com) where every feature
is described and justified with examples and plots. There should be a
plot in the README of a visualization package though, so without further
ado:
``` r
library(ggforce)
#> Loading required package: ggplot2
ggplot(iris, aes(Petal.Length, Petal.Width, colour = Species)) +
geom_point() +
facet_zoom(x = Species == "versicolor")
```
