Nice, thanks!
I ran into this while making my latest package site public. Haven't posted to the socials yet because there are a couple more bugs to fix, but I'm pretty excited about it.
Mundane task: Data frame -> Table. But suuuuper easy to use and incredibly flexible. Plus, 0-dependency. Let me know if you try it: https://vincentarelbundock.github.io/tinytable/
I saw your repo like 5min after you made it public ^^ Looks very nice, I'm not sure I have the willingness to learn another package to make tables, but if you made it you must have nice usecase for it. I'll definitely take a look :)
Haha, yeah. The beauty of it is that there's basically nothing to learn. I just couldn't deal with the 100 functions in other table packages (and 60+ dependencies), so I designed my own.
There's basically two functions in the whole package: tt()
and style_tt()
.
library(tinytable)
x <- mtcars[1:4, 1:4]
tt(x)
tt(x) |> style_tt(color = "orange")
But yeah, I totally get that very few people want to learn a new package.

Btw I think you forgot to export style_tt()
haha, fixed
I always find the 0-dep label nice to have, and at the same time I constantly use the tidyverse pkgs in my work so I'm never really the target for this. I've probably not been in the domain for long enough to truly enjoy no-dep pkgs ^^

Just wait for the 100+ feature requests 😄 You should start making a package / website called "arelbundock-verse" with marginaleffects
+ modelsummary
+ tinytable
+ tinysnapshot
+ countrycode
, that's a nice collection
For me, it's mostly that I don't use the tidyverse on a day to day basis, so it's annoying when I do a renv
and have to load 65 extra packages just to draw tables. But I've also been bitten by old code breakage many times, and I hate it.
I do understand that it's not a selling point for many. Hopefully the simple interface will be enough of a selling point for those people.
