Want to learn how to create interactive web applications with R? In this workshop, you will get started with Shiny, a package that turns your data analyses, visualizations, and dashboards into user-friendly web apps.

Together, we will build a Shiny app from scratch. You will learn how to connect user interface elements (such as checkboxes and drop-down menus) to your R code and how to display the results on a web page. By the end of the session, you will have the skills to start building your own interactive apps.

For inspiration, take a look at some of the apps we have developed: huygens.science.uva.nl
