Submission Guideline: Create one html file from Rmarkdown that answer all the following questions. Each question should has it own Rmd file and a corresponding link. Include the link of the html file to your Github webpage and submit the link to the html file to Canvas.
Install the flexdashboard package using
install.packages("flexdashboard").
Create an empty dashboard. In Rstudio, File -> New File -> R Markdown -> From Template -> Flex Dashboard. Knit the rmarkdown file and add the html link to this report.
Use this template flex dashboard (dashboard, Rmd) to create a flex dashboard that
Has a side bar
Has at least three main Tabs
Has at least four plots
Shows a table data that can be searched
Include the link of the dashboard here.
We want users to be able to interact with our dashboard. This can be
done using shiny. A flex dashboard using shiny
requires a domain to host it. We will use shinyapps.io, which can host
five dashboard for free. If we want to host more than five dashboards,
we can create multiple accounts at shinyapps.io.
Follow these below steps to create a shiny flex dashboard then publish it. Include the link of the dashboard here.
Install the following packages shiny,
packrat, rsconnect.
Go to https://www.shinyapps.io/ and create an account
Go to https://www.shinyapps.io/admin/#/dashboard. Account -> Tokens -> Show -> Show secret-> Copy the secret code.
It should look like this
rsconnect::setAccountInfo(name='fall20',
token='E130D64F22776383660DA7EA5251EC04',
secret='mJI7rgq2Wf46g2Wf46g2WNOa+E6NRqr26yG3N5')Paste the secret code into Rstudio Console and Run it.
Click Run Document (Or Ctrl + Shift + K) to check
the dashboard
On right, top corner click Publish to Publish the dashboard to your acccount on shinyapps.io
Your published dashboard should look like this
Write a shiny flex dashboard that uses selectInput and
