Codecov test coverage CRAN status R-CMD-check

Introduction

hardhat is a developer focused package designed to ease the creation of new modeling packages, while simultaneously promoting good R modeling package standards as laid out by the set of opinionated Conventions for R Modeling Packages.

hardhat has four main goals:

The idea is to reduce the burden of creating a good modeling interface as much as possible, and instead let the package developer focus on writing the core implementation of their new model. This benefits not only the developer, but also the user of the modeling package, as the standardization allows users to build a set of “expectations” around what any modeling function should return, and how they should interact with it.
