README

Excerpt

R Visuals in Power BI (PBIR)

Use pbir for every report mutation. Read PBIR metadata only for diagnosis. If pbir is unavailable or lacks an operation, stop and report the gap; never edit report JSON directly.

R visuals execute R scripts (primarily ggplot2) to render static PNG images on the Power BI canvas. ggplot2 is the preferred library -- its grammar of graphics approach produces clean, publication-quality statistical visualizations with less code. R is particularly strong for statistical visualizations.
