abstract: 'Provides useful tools for both users and developers of packages for fitting
  Bayesian models or working with output from Bayesian models. The primary goals of
  the package are to: (a) Efficiently convert between many different useful formats
  of draws (samples) from posterior or prior distributions. (b) Provide consistent
  methods for operations commonly performed on draws, for example, subsetting, binding,
  or mutating draws. (c) Provide various summaries of draws in convenient formats.
  (d) Provide lightweight implementations of state of the art posterior inference
  diagnostics. References: Vehtari et al. (2021) <https://doi.org/10.1214/20-BA1221>.'
