Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll develop a detailed dashboard for serving complex data to medical scientists working on a cure for cancer. Using the R language and Shiny framework, you’ll develop a dashboard that allows easy querying of different facets of the dataset using a web-based GUI. You’ll work to preprocess your dataset for efficient access, and refine and deploy the dashboard to your company’s web servers. When you’re done, you’ll have built a working prototype of an in-demand piece of data software.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
book resources
When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
