ggplot2 is an R package implementing the Grammar of Graphics for declaratively creating data visualizations. Users map data variables to aesthetics and layer graphical primitives, scales, facets, and coordinate systems to build plots.

Use cases

  • create scatter plots and histograms from data frames in R
  • make publication-quality statistical graphics
  • build faceted plots split by categorical variables
  • customize legends, axes, colors, and themes in plots
  • reorder bars in bar charts by value
  • annotate plots with text and reference lines

When to choose

  • you work in R and need flexible, declarative data visualization
  • you want a mature, widely-documented plotting system with a large extension ecosystem
  • you need consistent grammar-based plots across many chart types

When to avoid

  • you need interactive or web-based visualizations rather than static graphics
  • you are not working in R
  • you want cutting-edge novel visualization features rather than a stable system
