The FIT R Universe

What is the FIT R Universe?

The FIT R Universe provides access to the latest compiled R packages in the FIT. These packages are built from the default branch of R code repositories in the FIT. Install is fast and easy (like installing from CRAN), with instructions on each R package’s R universe page. There is also documentation available on each R package.

What does the FIT R Universe provide for developers?

The FIT R universe can provide value to developers by:

  • Showing successful and failed builds of their R package on the builds page
  • Providing an easier install experience for users, hopefully saving developers from having to troubleshoot users’ install issues
  • Automatic hosting vignettes included in the R package
  • Providing snapshots of binaries on the API page, which can be attached to GitHub Releases
