title: 'greta: Simple and ''Scalable'' Statistical Modelling in R'
version: 0.6.0
doi: 10.21105/joss.01601
abstract: Write statistical models in R and fit them by 'MCMC' and optimisation on
  'CPUs' and 'GPUs', using Google 'TensorFlow'. 'greta' lets you write your own model
  like in 'BUGS', 'JAGS' and 'Stan', except that you write models right in R, it scales
  well to massive datasets, and it’s easy to extend and build on. See the website
  for more information, including tutorials, examples, package documentation, and
  the 'greta' forum. This work is discussed at Golding (2019) <https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.01601>.
