#gtExtras
h/t as usual to the awesome @posit.co team for {gt} as well as @aweatherman.com and @themockup.blog for {cbbplotR} and {gtExtras} respectively, three awesome packages that make generating cool basketball tables in R a cinch!

Actually, I think I changed my mind about DataExplorer. The part of it that deals with EDA is among the more useful visual summarization tools out there, it seems. Plus I'm experiencing some annoying problems with gt + gtExtras (especially the gt_plt_summary() function)...

Hmmm… found it quite hard to find countries… eg location of Great Britain vs Netherlands?

Would prefer a table with sparkline plot: jthomasmock.github.io/gtExtras/ref...
Add sparklines into rows of a gt table — gt_plt_sparkline
The gt_plt_sparkline function takes an existing gt_tbl object and adds sparklines via the ggplot2. Note that if you'd rather plot summary distributions (ie density/histograms) you can instead use: gtE...

I had a look at kable tables ig? But they weren't as customisable and intuitive as {gt} + {gtExtras} and other small packages did allow for more options and ready templates.

If i'm missing other packages for making tables, please inform about them.

Have you heard about the gtExtras package for R? This package aims to elevate your R table game, merging the powerful static tables of gt with dynamic graphics.

I had the idea to add distributions to my volleyball summary tables today. Thanks to @richmeister.bsky.social's gt, @mjskay.com's ggdist, and @themockup.blog's gtExtras packages! Took awhile but got there eventually!

(note that this is a screenshot of a shiny app so quality is a bit iffy)
