Please supply the following information:

Short title: eg., An Introduction to R Shiny for Researchers Repo: https://github.com/j-andrews7/ShinyForResearchersWorkshop Workshop URL: https://j-andrews7.github.io/ShinyForResearchersWorkshop/ Workshop docker image: eg., ghcr.io/j-andrews7/shinyforresearchersworkshop Workshop port: eg., 8787 for Rstudio-based workshops Workshop memory request: 8 GB Workshop description:

This workshop is designed to introduce participants to the basics of R Shiny, a web application framework for R. Shiny is a powerful tool that can be used to create interactive, re-usable, and shareable web applications that can be used to explore and visualize data, and to create interactive reports.

In particular, this curriculum is geared towards scientists and bioinformaticians to emphasize how Shiny can be more than a way for scientists to dig through data - it can be a powerful framework for expert bioinformaticians to streamline figure generation and interpretation they’re doing themselves.


check is failing for my package via Github actions due to Bioconductor packages not being available to install, which I can't say I'm understanding at the moment. That could just be the sleep deprivation - I will take a closer look in a few hours.

This workshop is being held tomorrow (Tuesday), but I have backups in place if I am too late getting this in.

Thanks @seandavi for the great platform!

Hi @seandavi, would still love to get this added if possible.

Hi, @j-andrews7. We've transitioned to a new galaxy-based workshop system being run by @almahmoud.

Is this workshop for the conference, or to be used more generally? It just helps Alex put it in the right place.
