Shiny R is a platform for turning data analysis and visualization into an interactive, user-friendly environment, making it easier to conduct your own research, quickly test your models/assumptions, and distribute your knowledge to a broader community. First session held January 13-17, 2020, next session TBD.
OUR SHINY R WORKSHOP IS MEANT TO BUILD A COMMUNITY AROUND MAKING DATA EASIER TO INTERPRET, UNDERSTAND, AND DISTRIBUTE THROUGH INTERACTIVE WEB APPLICATIONS.
Register for the
R Shiny Workshop
January 13-17, 2020
This NREL short course on R shiny is designed to put you, the data analyst or researcher, in the driver’s seat for building interactive analyses and websites to better analyze your data and disseminate your work. R Shiny can improve your own data analysis approaches, improve the impact of your work by connecting users directly to your data or insights, and increase engagement of your work by other people working on related topics. The interactive nature of shiny also enables it to be used as a powerful educational and teaching tool, quickly developing interest and engagement from your students.
What is ‘shiny’?
Shiny allows you to create interactive webpages and interfaces as a package for the R statistical program, already commonly used by researchers and data scientists. Shiny allows you to analyze, interact, and communicate your data in one seamless place without requiring the user to learn any programming.
