Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to create packages with RStudio and got an overview of the development process of our own package. We learned that RStudio combines great tools, which make package development much easier. Tools such as roxygen2 give you the possibility of building great documentations for your packages to make them easier to understand for other users.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to collaborate with Git. We will understand the fundamentals, how to install it, and we will see the powerful integration of RStudio with Git.
