Special syntax to refer to packages? #122

Closed lwjohnst86 closed 2 years ago

lwjohnst86 commented 2 years ago

We use R/ to indicate a folder, function() to refer to functions, and variable for variables. What about for R packages? Sometimes I've seen resources refer to packages with {packagename}. Any thoughts on this syntax style?

I like this syntax (in that it's familiar to me), and think it's important to differentiate package names from other software (e.g., RStudio and Git).
