Ellis Hughes and I continue our Base R plotting tutorial and discuss how to set up line plots, for time series and trend data. We provide a number of line plot options using the {Lahman} baseball data package.

This week, Ellis Hughes and I discuss how to get started with Base R plots. We’ve done a ton on our screen cast using {ggplot2} and {plotly}. But, there are some cool things you can do with Base R plots to make them look really nice and presentable. In this first part we discuss scatter plots and show how to go from the basic default settings into something that is more presentable.

Ellis Hughes and I have been working on some advanced shiny tutorials. This week, we show how you can dynamically link to a webpage via your shiny server, have the server scrape the web page for the defined user query and then return the results back to them. We do this using NHL data provided by the folks at www.hockey-reference.com.

A shiny app has always required a server to run. If you wanted to connect data to your users and allow them to interact with it you needed server accessibility. Well, not any more! This week, Ellis Hughes and I explore ShinyLive as an option for creating serverless shiny app. It’s early days, but the future is bright. Watch us walk through trying to learn how to set up a serverless shiny app and figure out the ins and outs of the code.

This week, Ellis Hughes and I discuss methods for prepopulating a shiny app’s user defined parameters from a URL. This type of trick comes in handy if you have a separate application that people are using and you want to provide them a link to click out to your shiny app. However, when opening that link you don’t want it to open the shiny app from the typical starting point. Rather, you want them to be take directly to the data they require based on the information they were reviewing in the other application.
