The alternatives below are ranked the same way, so you're comparing real release momentum, not marketing claims.
About ggInterval
Interval-valued data plotting, spending 2026 making its function names and examples survive CRAN.
ggInterval visualizes symbolic interval-valued data — observations recorded as ranges rather than points — with a family of plot functions in the ggplot2 idiom. The plot catalogue grew most recently with interval correlation heatmaps and interval line plots compatible with time-series input. The three releases before that were corrections: seven plot functions renamed for consistency, examples switched from dontrun to donttest at CRAN's request, and a vignette rewritten to demonstrate every function in one place.
