A newcomer’s (angry) guide to R

ggplot2 has plotnine (http://plotnine.readthedocs.io) which has a nearly identical API. I've found though it's not perfect, you can get closer to dplyr with JS-style method chaining on Pandas.

I've recently used plotnine, and it's been a relatively good experience, but Pandas is absolute garbage compared to the tidyverse, API-wise.

I tried plotnine before and its far from covering everything ggplot can do. And chaining on pandas can make things unreadable compared to dplyr.
