R Shiny dashboards in production - stories from the battlefield


Details
We have a new R Meetup session in the pipeline! After a long break and two lockdowns, I am happy to announce Uli Muellner's talk about Shiny applications in productions. Please join us for the presentation and the the networking session afterwards. As usual there will be pizza, snacks and soft drinks.
Abstract
The talk will dive into what it takes to make your R Shiny dashboards ready for production - from stakeholder engagement and design considerations to data pipelines, hosting and performance tuning. We’ll showcase some of the R Shiny projects we’ve recently been working on and how we addressed some of the challenges. Examples include the NZ COVID-19 health intelligence dashboards, the AIS Explorer which supports management of the risk of aquatic invasive species, and Epidemix, a freely accessible app to make complex models easier to understand.
