Overview

About

Maintained by Andrei-Florian StoicaFirst published 2025-09-184 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A visualization suite primarily designed for single-cell RNA-sequencing data analysis applications but well-suited for other purposes as well. It introduces novel plots to represent two-variable and frequency data and optimizes some commonly used plotting options (e.g., correlation, network, density, alluvial and volcano plots) for ease of usage and flexibility.
