Description:

R Markdown provides an incredibly powerful tool for authoring reports from R. R Markdown is "hands down the easiest and most elegant method to creating rich documents that contain data analysis, figures, mathematical formulas, and text." - Claus Wilke Professor of Integrative Biology at The University of Texas at Austin.

Now we would like to introduce you to flexdashboard! Flexdashboard leverages R Markdown to publish data visualizations as a dashboard.

Flexdashboard is an easy way to quickly create dashboards, ideal for publishing visualizations with flexible and easy to specify layouts. When you use flexdashboard, charts are intelligently re-sized to fill the browser and adapted for display on mobile devices.

In this webinar you'll learn how to create your own flexdashboards with a variety of layouts, including tabset panels, navbars, and multiple pages. You'll also learn about a wide variety of components which can be included in layouts:

  • Interactive JavaScript data visualizations based on htmlwidgets.
  • R graphical output including base, lattice, and grid graphics.
  • Tabular data (with optional sorting, filtering, and paging).
  • Value boxes for highlighting important summary data.
  • Gauges for displaying values on a meter within a specified range.
  • Text annotations of various kinds.
  • Shiny components that allow viewers to change underlying parameters of the visualizations.
