ggplot2 3.3.0 - Tidyverse Mar 5, 2020 · 2020/03/05. Thomas Lin Pedersen. We’re so happy to announce the release of ggplot2 3.3.0 on CRAN. ggplot2 is a system for declaratively creating graphics, based on The Grammar of Graphics. You provide the data, tell ggplot2 how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use, and it takes care of the details.
