Our packages delegate all computational tasks to C++ code.ย all time-intensive tasks are implemented in C++: estimation and forecasting, ofc. But with Bayesian multivariate dynamic structural non-linear models even simple tasks take time. so impulse responses etc. are implemented in C++ too...ย and all of them have R wrappers

๐ Once you work with Bayesian structural dynamic non-linear system modelling everything takes a while! So, we delegate EVERYTHING to much faster C++ code! ๐ฆ

bsvars.org design concept:ย Our packages use ReppArmadillo for linear algebra frontier package for linear algebra linking R with C++ library Armadillo; implements fast random number generators; makes C++ code as expressive as R's (or MATLAB's). we love it!
๐ค bsvars.org design concept pt. 3 ๐
โญ We use RcppArmadillo for linear algebra because we found it very fast on matrix operations and RNGs, well-documented, easy to use in packages. We ๐ค it! Seriously!

Our packages rely on C++ code implemented using Rcpp: simple package development; simple setup, compilation, linking, object compatibility with R; parallel computations via openMP; super fast on loops; great community support.
โญ We implemented C++ code using Rcpp and could not be more glad about that! It's a fantastic facility with many functionalities.
โจ And @eddelbuettel.com is answering all Rcpp questions the following Canadian morning, which is so great!

๐ R was missing tools for SVARs and particularly on Bayesian SVARs. There were some such packages, but the literature and usersโ needs are much broader.
๐ The core code for most of algorithms in our packages is written in C++ which is much faster.

Luis asked why have I chosen to develop packages for Bayesian SVARs in R. This is why:
๐ I really like the format of R packages how itโs standardised and checked at the CRAN assuring quality.
