Finding the right tool for the job The hardest part about effectively using R is finding the best packages for the problem you are trying to solve.

R-universe now has search! We made a series of structural improvements in r-universe to make it easier to browse and discover interesting R packages and articles. Most notably, the r-universe.dev landing page has been overhauled: you can now search directly for any name or keyword across the entire ecosystem: The homepage also lists the popular topics and organizations, and links to recently active packages, articles, and maintainers.
