sessioninfo

The sessioninfo package provides detailed information about your current R session, similar to utils::sessionInfo() but with enhanced output. It’s designed for debugging, creating reproducible examples, and documenting your R environment when reporting issues or sharing code.

The package highlights potential installation problems like mismatched package versions or corrupted DLLs, shows package sources including GitHub commits, and displays information about external software dependencies. It can also report Python configuration when using reticulate, compare session info between environments with session_diff(), and selectively show loaded, attached, or installed packages with their recursive dependencies.
