Research tools for plotting/tables/other outputs

Tables:

• Reactable
  • Examples: 1, 2
• DT
  • RStudio's table library. Simpler, less CSS, probably safer than Reactable.

Static plots:

• ggplot

Interactive plots:

• Plotly
  • Reference: basic charts, custom controls, animations
• rbokeh
  • Prettier than plotly. Better tooltips
• Highcharter
  • Wow! So pretty. Its a wrapper for the Highcharts JavaScript library.
• dygraphs
  • Only for time series charts. Looks pretty good though.
• girafe

Geographic plots:

• Leaflet
• tmap
  • Interacts with leaflet for interactivity
• Plotly
  • Examples: Scatter, Bubble
  • Definitely not as pretty as tmap/leaflet. Probably easiest of the three
