'Ternary' is an R package that allows the creation of ternary plots
(a.k.a. ternary graphs / simplex plots / Gibbs triangles / de Finetti diagrams)
and Holdridge life zone diagrams
using the familiar functions of the default 'graphics' package.

![Example ternary plot](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1695515/233467338-88a3b3a8-5580-4924-a11e-06dc8a38b3e9.png)

For simple use cases, generate ternary plots using the point-and-click
Shiny app:

```r
install.packages("Ternary")
Ternary::TernaryApp()
```

For greater control over your plots, use the R command line;
usage instructions are available for
[Ternary plots](https://ms609.github.io/Ternary/articles/Ternary.html)
(with an [introductory vignette for R beginners](https://ms609.github.io/Ternary/articles/new-users.html)), and for
[Holdridge plots](https://ms609.github.io/Ternary/articles/Holdridge.html).

Install the development version from GitHub with
```r
devtools::install_github("ms609/Ternary", args = "--recursive")
```
This requires [git](https://git-scm.com/) to be installed and added to
your PATH system environment variable.
You may also require the '[curl](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=curl)'
R package.
