This prompted the developments of [**infer**](http://infer.netlify.com), a package for performing statistical inference using an expressive statistical grammar that coheres with the tidyverse design framework. Using infer to introduce statistical inference makes the transition from the first to the second unit of the course much smoother, and the development of the package as a collaboration between like-minded educators is a great example of leveraging an existing ecosystem to provide a smoother learning experience for students.
