popmaps2 is in development alpha while the package is stabilized and optimized.

Development Priorities

  • Preserve scientific behavior from POPMAPS 1.03 until tests prove an optimized implementation is equivalent or intentionally different.
  • Keep changes small enough to review.
  • Add tests before changing model behavior.
  • Document any change that affects output values, dependency requirements, or runtime.

Local Checks

Run these before opening a pull request:

testthat::test_local()

From the shell:

R CMD check --no-manual --as-cran .

Some legacy optional features currently require retired or unavailable packages. Those paths should be tested separately until replacements are implemented.
