this is crazy, I watched first 10 mins without coding, which shows how you explain everything so easy

dark mode + properly zoomed + logical well-paced instruction = straight in my faves

For a casual R user, myself, this is great. The video format, pacing, audio quality and everything; great.

Really grateful for this. This is a power packed video, informational and compact. Thanks again sir

Thanks for the really nice intro, I'll share it.
Personally, I'm a bit more advanced, currently learning how to expand the base package.

Though I've been using ggplot for few years I was still able to learn new things about scale x continuous and adjusting geom text. Thx

Btw, I think it would have helped newbies if you had shown 'group' parameter in geom line.. That's always needed in geom line and it's not very intuitive when you look at documentation

[MrSainforce]

Very nice and helpful introduction to ggplot! Do you also plan to create such an introduction to data wrangling?

how do i insert those bars on the left side of the R code
