Why ggseg Atlases Became Function Calls

Dr. Mowinckel's blog: A little while ago, I started doing quite some substantial work on ggseg-packages. I wanted to make things more coherent, clear, a proper ecosystem of packages that could more easily be expanded upon. In that work, I needed to make some hard decisions on how things should _work_ for the user, which collided with how they currently worked for the user. Ick, it was hard to do something I knew would break so many people's code.

Abstract

Dr. Mowinckel's blog: A little while ago, I started doing quite some substantial work on ggseg-packages. I wanted to make things more coherent, clear, a proper ecosystem of packages that could more easily be expanded upon. In that work, I needed to make some hard decisions on how things should _work_ for the user, which collided with how they currently worked for the user. Ick, it was hard to do something I knew would break so many people's code.
