How do I set AGG as the default device in .Rprofile?

Great work guys. I've been using the 1.0 version and have seen good performance improvements.

How do I use it outside of RStudio? Or, more specifically, how do I configure my .Rprofile options to have AGG as the default device?

There is no way to have ragg being used when you open a device with e.g. png(), and there is currently no windowed device available, so outside of opening a device with one of the agg_*() functions there's not much else to do

FWIW, if you want to use ragg with shiny::renderPlot(), you can put options(shiny.useragg = TRUE) in your .Rprofile

Oh — I was unaware of that. Will update the readme

Yea, we haven't really advertised it, but advertising it now seems like the right time :)
