Tidybayes and ggdist 3.0 are now on CRAN. There are a number of big changes, including some slightly backwards-incompatible changes, hence the major version bump. Major changes include: Support for slabs with true gradients with varying alpha or fill in R 4.1. Improved support for discrete distributions. Support for the new posterior package, including the rvar (random variable) datatype. side, justification, and scale are now aesthetics instead of parameters, allowing them to vary across slabs within the same geom.

More details on these changes (and some other minor changes) below. Tidybayes is now tidybayes + ggdist tidybayes began as a package focused on munging posteriors from Bayesian models into a format suitable for use with ggplot2. Read more…
