Description
Create Simple Packages Which Do not Upset R Package Checks.
Description
Provides a function kitten() which creates cute little packages which pass R package checks. This sets it apart from package.skeleton() which it calls, and which leaves imperfect files behind. As this is not exactly helpful for beginners, kitten() offers an alternative. Unit test support can be added via the 'tinytest' package (if present), and documentation-creation support can be added via 'roxygen2' (if present).

pkgKitten: Create packages that purr
The base R function package.skeleton()
is very useful for creating new packages for R. It is also very upsetting as it has been producing the same files which trigger R CMD check
in the exact same way.
And as something terrible happens each time R CMD check
barks, this package offers a wrapper function kitten()
which leaves an adorable little package behind which does not upset R CMD check
.
So just think of the kittens.
Installation
The package is on CRAN and can be installed via a standard
install.packages("pkgKitten")
Documentation
Package documentation, help pages, and more is also available here.
