This article introduces peacesciencer, an R package that contains a litany of tools for creating data of widespread interest to the peace science community. The package is cross-platform, assuming only a somewhat recent installation of the R programming language with some of the enhanced functionality of the broadly popular tidvyerse packages. Peace science researchers can use this package to greatly reduce the time needed to perfectly recreate common types of data from scratch and to merge in ubiquitous indicators included in almost every analysis (e. g. democracy data, contiguity data). The software is freely available on CRAN and maintains an active website documenting its features at http: //svmiller. com/peacesciencer.
