Auth0 vs ggInterval: at a glance
What is Auth0?
Auth0 hands tenants a throttle on their own noisy apps
Custom Rate Limits enter Early Access, letting a tenant cap requests per second for individual clients or whole classes of them — third-party, CIMD — so one application cannot exhaust the tenant's Authentication API rate limit entitlement. Policies are configured through an API and can be rolled out in notify-only mode before they start blocking. It arrives in a dense window that also brought Flexible Password Policy to GA and Custom Prompts parity across social and enterprise connections.
What is 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.

Auth0 hands tenants a throttle on their own noisy apps
◆ Current state
Custom Rate Limits enter Early Access, letting a tenant cap requests per second for individual clients or whole classes of them — third-party, CIMD — so one application cannot exhaust the tenant's Authentication API rate limit entitlement. Policies are configured through an API and can be rolled out in notify-only mode before they start blocking. It arrives in a dense window that also brought Flexible Password Policy to GA and Custom Prompts parity across social and enterprise connections.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads dominate. One is agent and delegation infrastructure — Agents as Principal, Token Vault Privileged Worker, Custom Token Exchange session delegation — all still in Early Access. The other is tenant self-service: rate limits, blocklists, organization search and roles, global search. Auth0 is systematically converting things that required support intervention into API-configurable policy.
◆ Prediction
The Early Access items now stacking up, particularly the agent-identity pieces, are the obvious GA candidates next, following the Flexible Password Policy path from Early Access to general availability.
ggInterval
0.0INFRA · APIS
Interval-valued data plotting, spending 2026 making its function names and examples survive CRAN.
◆ Current state
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.
◆ Where it's heading
The package is consolidating an interface that had drifted. Renaming seven functions in a single release is the clearest signal — the naming was inconsistent enough to be worth breaking, and the vignette rewrite that followed suggests discoverability was the underlying complaint. Underneath that, the additions are steady and narrow: each release brings interval-aware versions of plot types that already exist for point data, which is the whole premise of the package.
◆ Prediction
The pattern of porting one more standard plot type into interval-aware form each release is the most likely continuation; the tsplot compatibility in the latest version hints that time-series interval data is the direction attracting attention.
