CRAN Downloads

Steven P. Sanderson II, MPH - Date: 2025-10-29

This repo contains the analysis of downloads of my R packages:

• healthyR
• healthyR.data
• healthyR.ts
• healthyR.ai
• healthyverse
• TidyDensity
• tidyAML
• RandomWalker

All of which follow the “analyses as package” philosophy this repo itself is an R package that can installed using remotes::install_github().

I have forked this project itself from ggcharts-analysis.

While I analyze healthyverse packages here, the functions are written in a way that you can analyze any CRAN package with a slight modification to the download_log function.
