A Fresh Approach to R Package Installation
pak installs R packages from CRAN, Bioconductor, GitHub, URLs, git
repositories, local files and directories. It is an alternative to
install.packages() and
devtools::install_github(). pak is fast, safe and
convenient.

Install a binary build of pak from our repository on GitHub:
install.packages("pak", repos = sprintf("https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/stable/%s/%s/%s", .Platform$pkgType, R.Version()$os, R.Version()$arch))This is supported for the following systems:
| OS | CPU | R version |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | x86_64 | R 3.5.0 - R-devel |
| Linux | aarch64 | R 3.5.0 - R-devel |
| macOS High Sierra+ | x86_64 | R 3.5.0 - R-devel |
| macOS Big Sur+ | aarch64 | R 4.1.0 - R-devel |
| Windows | x86_64 | R 3.5.0 - R-devel |
For macOS we only support the official CRAN R build. Other builds, e.g. Homebrew R, are not supported.
Install the released version of the package from CRAN as usual:
install.packages("pak")This potentially needs a C compiler on platforms CRAN does not have binaries packages for.
