title: 'patchwork: The Composer of Plots'
version: 1.3.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.patchwork
abstract: The 'ggplot2' package provides a strong API for sequentially building up
  a plot, but does not concern itself with composition of multiple plots. 'patchwork'
  is a package that expands the API to allow for arbitrarily complex composition of
  plots by, among others, providing mathematical operators for combining multiple
  plots. Other packages that try to address this need (but with a different approach)
  are 'gridExtra' and 'cowplot'.
