A side-by-side editorial comparison of clinify and modeltime.resample — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Clinical-table typesetting for R, closing the gap between R output and regulatory Word documents
clinify renders clinical trial tables into Word documents through {officer}, aiming at the layout conventions regulatory submissions expect. 0.4.0 is the current CRAN release and folds in an unreleased 0.3.1. The recent work is almost entirely about header and spacing control: which adjacent header cells merge, where the rule under a spanner starts and stops, and how much vertical space sits above, below and between header rows and the table body.
modeltime.resample exists to keep backtesting working as tidymodels shifts underneath it.
modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.

The recent work is almost entirely about header and spacing control: which adjacent header cells merge, where the rule under a spanner starts and stops, and how much vertical space sits above, below and between header rows and the table body.
The package is moving from producing a correct table toward producing one that survives an organisation's house style. 0.4.0's additions are all written to hold under a customised `clinify_table_default()` — `clin_spanner_rule()` draws after the default styling function so it persists when a house style clears the borders it started from, and takes an `officer::fp_border()` or `FALSE` so a style can decline the rule entirely. The earlier 0.3.0 line did the structural work, introducing `clindoc()` document objects that accept multiple tables plus automatic pagination.
Expect continued refinement of layout primitives that follow the table rather than fixed column numbers, since both new 0.4.0 functions were built specifically to track spanners and headers as a layout changes. The entries do not indicate a move beyond Word output.
modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.
Every entry here is compatibility work against something upstream — hardhat 1.0.0, workflows regression mode, then tune 2.0.0 twice. The 0.3.0 notes show a second concern emerging alongside it: making failures legible, with .notes on failed fits, actionable errors from unnest_modeltime_resamples(), and fallback logic when prediction columns go missing across versions. Reproducibility gets the same treatment through explicit seeding.
Expect the next release to track the next tidymodels breaking change, with any new work continuing on error reporting rather than resampling strategies.
