Dashboards and Apps with Shiny (with Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel, Ph.D.)

For our October meetup, we are delighted to be hosting R-Ladies RTP organizer, Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel, Ph.D.!

About the event:
Shiny is an R package that makes it easy to build interactive web apps straight from R. With Shiny, you can create standalone apps, embed them in R Markdown documents, build dashboards, and much more. In this workshop we will introduce the basics of building flexdashboards with Shiny components for interactivity, and demo how to transition from building dashboards to standalone apps. Please bring a laptop with you so that you can follow along and work on the exercises sprinkled throughout.
