Meetup: Interactive Graphics with Shiny and Plotly

Come join Data Science Dojo for a community talk on Interactive Graphics with Shiny and Plotly!

We can probably all recall a time in which we created a great chart and in the midst of discussion someone asks “What if…?” or “Why?”. Using conventional plotting libraries would require manual manipulation of the data or code to update the chart in order to answer such questions, taking us out of the moment and potentially losing an opportunity for insight.

Using the Plotly libraries we can easily create, modify, and share rich, sophisticated, and interactive charts for a variety of delivery mediums. Come join us as we introduce Plotly and explore some examples that take us from the world of static charts to one of interactive graphics that engage the audience and lead to faster insights.
