Generic functionality #86

Closed seabbs closed 2 years ago

seabbs commented 3 years ago

Some of the package functionality is quite generic at this point. For example the forecast family and some elements of the plotting code (but perhaps to less of a degree). It also replicates functionality from previous projects (i.e EpiNow2, EpiSoon). This could mean several things, with the first being that there is some generic tooling here that could be usefully extracted into a more generic setting. It could also mean that there is already generic tooling this workflow fits in and if it would be good to know what that is and move to use it in the future. Finally, it could be the case that developing this tooling on a project-specific basis is in fact the most efficient approach and so nothing needs to be changed here.
