{SciViews} mainly provides the SciViews::R dialect through the function of the same name. It loads a series of tidyverse and SciViews packages in order to supplement base R with functions to implement that dialect. See, for instance the books Science des Données Biologiques I and Science des Données Biologiques II (in French) for extensive examples of the use of SciViews::R.

{SciViews} is available from CRAN, but it is an old version. You should install it from the SciViews R-Universe. To install this package and its dependencies, run the following command in R:

install.packages('SciViews', repos = c('https://sciviews.r-universe.dev',
  'https://cloud.r-project.org'))

An older version of {SciViews} can be installed from CRAN:

install.packages("SciViews")

You can also install the latest development version. Make sure you have the {remotes} R package installed:

install.packages("remotes")

Use install_github() to install the {SciViews} package from GitHub (source from main branch will be recompiled on your machine):

remotes::install_github("SciViews/SciViews")

R should install all required dependencies automatically, and then it should compile and install {SciViews}.

You can get further help about this package this way: Make the {SciViews} package and all the other packages required by the SciViews::R dialect available in your R session:

SciViews::R()

Get help about this package:
