In shamindras/maars: Tidy Inference Under Misspecified Statistical Models in R

`maars` - an `R` implementation of Models As Approximations

The goal of the maars package is to implement the Models As Approximations series of statistics papers [@buja2019modelsasapproximationspart1] and [@buja2019modelsasapproximationspart2]. This package was inspired by the fantastic series of lectures by Prof. Arun Kumar Kuchibhotla and Prof. Andreas Buja, as part of the "STAT 36761: Modern Linear Regression" course at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Fall 2020.
