Description:
Presenter: Martin John Hadley
Level: Foundation
CPD: 6 hours
This course will introduce two technologies that will fundamentally change your use of R for data presentation on the web; htmlwidgets and Shiny. The first half of the course introduces RMarkdown and htmlwidgets; demonstrating how reports with interactive tables, maps and charts can be written and published to the web using RStudio. The second half of the course introduces the basics of Shiny, a web framework for creating sophisticated interactive applications using only the R language.
Htmlwidgets and Shiny are thoroughly underused in the R community. This course will show you it is almost trivial to build interactive charts/maps/datatables with htmlwidgets and only slightly trickier to build sophisticated interactive applications with Shiny.
