We continue to charge ahead with the #ggsql alpha release.

Today we release 0.3.0 — a release that does not add much for the user but cleans up tremendously in our internals. Read here if you are interested in keeping up to date

ggsql 0.3.0 – ggsql

We are happy to announce the next alpha release of ggsql. While slim on user-facing features, it contains a range of important infrastructural updates for the future.

This week's #TidyTuesday is about agricultural tariffs in the US. Today I've been working some more on #ggsql, so here is a ggsql plot!

This looks promising. I can imaging using #ggsql in a couple of projects.

🌘 ggsql：SQL 的圖形語法
➤ 讓數據說話：在 SQL 查詢中直接完成視覺化
✤ https://opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-04-20_ggsql_alpha_release/
正式推出的 ggsql 將「圖形語法」（Grammar of Graphics）概念完美融入 SQL 語法中，讓數據分析師無需離開熟悉的 SQL 環境，即可直接定義並產生複雜的視覺化圖表。透過將視覺化指令與 SQL 查詢語句結合，使用者能夠以宣告式（declarative）的方式，逐步建立包含散佈圖、直方圖及註釋的專業圖表。此工具極大簡化了數據提取與繪圖之間的轉換流程，實現了數據處理與呈現的一體化。
+ 這太驚人了！我一直希望能直接在查詢語句中畫圖，不用再費力匯出資料到 Python 或 R 處理。SQL 開發者的福音。
+ 概念很棒，但 SQL 已經夠長了，加上這些語法會不會讓程式碼變得難以維護？不過作為互動式探索工具，這確實很有潛力。
