Maelle Salmon shows off a few interesting functions:

How does this package depend on this other package? pak::pkg_deps_explain()

The pak package by Gábor Csárdi makes installing packages easier. If I need to start working on a package, I clone it, then run pak::pak() to install and update its dependencies. It’s a “convenience function” that is convenient for sure! Bye bye remotes::install_deps().

Read on for an example of this, as well as details on two other functions in different packages. H/T R-Bloggers.
