Remote Meetup: Shiny Deep Dive

Join the next SPDC online meetup with two members of the Shiny team at RStudio. Barret Schloerke and Carson Sievert work full time on improving the experience of creating visualizations in R and building Shiny apps. Join them for two talks on new packages that can improve your experience building Shiny apps and data visualizations.

Schedule:
7 - 7:20pm Reactlog 2.0: Debugging the State of Shiny (Barret)
The revamped reactlog provides an updated visual display to traverse through the reactive behavior within your shiny application. Using live shiny applications, we will use reactlog’s directed dependency graph to find missing reactive dependencies in “working” applications and address suboptimal reactive coding patterns. Correcting these coding patterns will reduce the amount of calculations done by shiny and keep reactive objects from being created unnecessarily.
7:20-7:30 Q+A
7:30-7:50 Plot theming made easieR (Carson)
The new thematic package provides a simplified and uniform approach to theming ggplot2, lattice, and base R graphics based on a few colors and font(s). This package provides the foundation for shiny’s new plot auto-theming feature, which automatically styles plots based on the application’s styling.
7:50-8 Q+A
