Research direction

Start with the linked Language Unity discussion and review the issue's question about base R, tidyverse, and dplyr. Done would require a decided scope for the requested detailed explanation and a documented answer or resource addressing the comparison.

Description

I have been learning R in a mix using base R and the tidyverse (mostly dplyr). I got concerned about Language Unity, because I could started to use R thanks to the tidyverse (just my experience of course) before using dplyr it was just too hard.
Have you ever written in detail about this issue so I can read more?
