## What is mlr3extralearners?

`mlr3extralearners` contains all learners from mlr3 that are not in `mlr3learners` or the core packages.
An overview of all learners within the `mlr3verse` can be found [here](https://mlr-org.com/learners.html).

`mlr3extralearners` lives on GitHub and will not be on CRAN.

You can install the package as follows:

```{r, eval = FALSE}
# latest GitHub release
remotes::install_github("mlr-org/mlr3extralearners@*release")

# development version
remotes::install_github("mlr-org/mlr3extralearners")
```

Alternatively, you can add the following to your .Rprofile, which allows you to install `mlr3extralearners` via `install.packages()`.
Note that this will install the development version.

```{r, eval = FALSE}
# .Rprofile
options(repos = c(
mlrorg = "https://mlr-org.r-universe.dev",
CRAN = "https://cloud.r-project.org/"
))
```

## Installing and Loading Learners

The package includes functionality for detecting if you have the required packages installed
to use a learner, and ships with the function `install_learner` which can install all required
learner dependencies.

```{r, echo=TRUE, eval = FALSE}
lrn("regr.gbm")
