patchwork is an R library for combining multiple ggplot2 plots into a single graphic using simple arithmetic operators. It supports arbitrarily complex layouts with full axis alignment, annotation, and multipage output.
Use cases
- combine multiple ggplot2 plots into one figure
- arrange plots in a grid layout in R
- align axes across subplots in ggplot
- create multipage plot layouts in R
- add shared titles and annotations to combined plots
When to choose
- you use ggplot2 and need to compose several plots into one graphic
- you need precise axis alignment across subplots
- you want a simple, expressive API for complex plot layouts
When to avoid
- you work outside R or don't use ggplot2
- you need to arrange base R or non-ggplot graphics (though limited wrapping exists)
- you need interactive or web-based visualization
