Load the packages and write the codes as shown below.

That’s all. Pretty easy and straightforward, right?

library(tidyverse)
library(ggdist)

ggplot(iris, aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Species, color = Species)) +
  stat_halfeye(
    point_color = NA, .width = 0, height = 0.6,
    position = position_nudge(y = 0.3)
  ) +
  geom_boxplot(
    position = position_nudge(y = 0.2),
    width = 0.1, outlier.shape = NA
  ) +
  geom_point(position = position_jitter(width = 0, height = 0.1, seed = 1))
