You can install the development version of unigd from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("nx10/unigd")See system requirements for troubleshooting.
See the guide for more details.
unigd is mostly written in C++, but contributions to the tests (in R) or the documentation are also always welcome!
Depends on cpp11 and systemfonts.
Much of the font handling and SVG rendering code is modified code from the excellent svglite package.
