Contributions summary:Joseph primarily contributed to the development of the `gtsummary` R package, focusing on enhancing its capabilities related to survey data analysis. Their work involved implementing a `tbl_svysummary()` function to compute descriptive statistics for survey objects, integrating `add_overall()` for summarizing overall statistics, and adding features like `add_p()` for adding p-values for comparisons and `add_ci()` for adding confidence intervals. They also modified the existing code to allow for custom summaries with `tbl_custom_summary()` and ensured compatibility with the `srvyr` package.
