okay so this tool makes RPM spec files for R packages, and it follows the Fedora guidelines for R packaging 💖 you can read those guidelines at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/R/ 🫶

it goes hunting for the package in the official repositories (CRAN and BioC) 🔍 if it finds it, the package gets downloaded to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/R2spec and the important metadata gets pulled out of the DESCRIPTION file ✨ then the spec file is written to your current working directory with everything it collected. iconic 👑
