ggpedigree: Visualizing Pedigrees with 'ggplot2' and 'plotly'

Provides plotting functions for visualizing pedigrees in behavior genetics and kinship research. The package complements 'BGmisc' [Garrison et al. (2024) <doi:10.21105/joss.06203>] by rendering pedigrees using the 'ggplot2' framework and offers a modern alternative to the base-graphics pedigree plot in 'kinship2' [Sinnwell et al. (2014) <doi:10.1159/000363105>]. Features include support for duplicated individuals, complex mating structures, integration with simulated pedigrees, and layout customization.
