awdb: Query the USDA NWCC Air and Water Database REST API
Description: Query the four endpoints of the ‘Air and Water Database (AWDB) REST API’ maintained by the National Water and Climate Center (NWCC) at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Endpoints include data, forecast, reference-data, and metadata. The package is extremely light weight, with ‘Rust’ via ‘extendr’ doing most of the heavy lifting to deserialize and flatten deeply nested ‘JSON’ responses. The AWDB can be found at https://wcc.sc.egov.usda.gov/awdbRestApi/swagger-ui/index.html.

extera: Template engine inspired by ‘tera’
Description: Template engine powered by the ‘tera’ ‘Rust’ crate and ‘extendr’. Users mainly interact with the ExTera R6 object, which serves as a template library with encapsulated methods for rendering. To render a template, users simply provide a context, or a dataset consisting of variable names and values. Template syntax supports additional logic, including built-in filters, tests, and functions, as well as loops, conditions, and inheritance. Documentation for tera’s templating syntax can be found at https://keats.github.io/tera/docs/.

rextendr: Call Rust Code from R using the ‘extendr’ Crate
Description: Provides functions to compile and load Rust code from R, similar to how ‘Rcpp’ or ‘cpp11’ allow easy interfacing with C++ code. Also provides helper functions to create R packages that use Rust code. Under the hood, the Rust crate ‘extendr’ is used to do all the heavy lifting.
