Updated Aug 17, 2026
Looking for the best alternatives to healthyR.ts? Sparkpulse tracks and ranks 12 alternatives in analytics tools by shipping velocity — how frequently each ships meaningful updates, verified from official changelogs. For reference, healthyR.ts shipped 0 meaningful updates in the last 30 days and carries a velocity score of 0.0 out of 10 in 2026. The alternatives below are ranked the same way, so you're comparing real release momentum, not marketing claims.
About healthyR.ts
healthyR.ts keeps adding time-series helpers, then quietly breaks the old ones to modernise them.
A time-series companion in the healthyverse family, shipping helper functions in batches: growth-rate vectors, an ADF test and auto_stationarize() in 0.2.11, then five log and differencing transforms in 0.3.0, and a random-walk plot in 0.3.2. Alongside the additions runs a steady stream of breaking cleanups — invisible returns dropped, R 4.1 required for the native pipe, and ts_ma_plot() refactored onto ggplot2 facets with its xts output removed and its return value cut from six items to two.
