[R] Plotly and rOpenSci: R and ggplot2 interactive, online, & collaborative plotting
Hello R help, My name is Matt, and I'm a co-founder at Plotly <http://plot.ly>, an online graphing and analytics project. We're building an R library <http://plot.ly/r> as part of the rOpenSci<http://ropensci.org>project. You can use it to make interactive, web-based R and ggplot2 plots. The plots are shareable, embeddable, and drawn with D3 (a JS graphing library). You can also make R and ggplot2 plots into collaborative, web-based plots. The project is still definitely in beta, so we'd appreciate hearing your suggestions and issues. Here is how the ggplot2 sharing works: ropensci.org/blog/2014/04/17/plotly/ Another fun aspect of it is that you can collaboratively plot in R, Python, MATLAB, and from our web app. That means you could work from R with a team working from Excel and work on the same plots and data. And your data and plots always stay together in your files. Here's how that looks in an IPython Notebook: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/msund/61cdbd5b22c103fffb84 We'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and suggestions. Our goal is to be a GitHub for sharing and collaborating on data and plots. We're on GitHub<http://github.com/ropensci/plotly>, and eager to hear from you. Thanks so much for any and all help and advice. All the best, Matt [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
