What problem does it solve?

Designing and implementing type-stable custom vector types in R using vctrs, ensuring predictable outputs and consistent behavior across operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type-stable functions with vec_cast and vec_ptype2 for safe inter-type operations
  • Building custom vector classes with new_vctr and a format method for tidy data frames
  • Testing and validation guidance with testing-vctrs to maintain robustness in packages

Quick Start

Install a basic vctrs-based vector class by creating a constructor, coercion/casting hooks, and minimal tests to verify type stability.
