How does this skill handle dynamic column names in functions?

It utilizes modern rlang patterns such as 'embracing' with curly-curly ({{ }}) to properly handle data-masking and metaprogramming within custom functions.

Does this skill support the magrittr pipe (%>%)?

While it can interpret legacy code, this skill specifically prioritizes the native R pipe (|>) introduced in R 4.1 for improved performance and reduced dependency overhead.

Is this skill suitable for R package developers?

Extensively. It provides guidance on API design, dependency management, unit testing with testthat, and documentation to ensure packages meet CRAN-quality standards.

Can this skill help with optimizing slow R code?

Yes, it includes strategies for performance optimization, including profiling with profvis, benchmarking alternatives with bench, and using dtplyr for large-scale data operations.
