Abstract: In this talk, we will discuss an infrastructure-free R package exchange and distribution system. The components include: {pkglite} for compact package representations, {cleanslate} for portable R environments, and {pkglink} for runtime dependency resolution. We will also discuss its potential applications in reproducible research and submissions.
