Include re-exporting advice in README about generics HOT 5 CLOSED

Depend. For example, recipes can just import modelgenerics instead of broom and I get the same functionality with a smaller footprint.

Will recipes "depend" on modelgenerics, or "import" it?

from generics.

Right now it depends on broom but I've never liked that. I could import modelgenerics and reexport tidy.

I think we are talking at cross-purposes here. There are two ways that a package that uses modelgenerics could make the generics available to users:

• You could "Depend" on it, hence library(recipes) implicitly does library(modelgenerics)
• You could re-export the functions, like tidyverse packages re-export the pipes.

I think you should document which is preferred.

I've been re-exporting. There's a broom vignette on how to do this in progress here. Also a minimal demonstration package.
