💡 What is reactivity and what does it have to do with a carrier pigeon? 🐦
To better understand how a #ShinyApp works, it's good to understand what's behind reactivity.

To describe it, I love the image of a carrier pigeon 🐦 (I picked up this idea when reading a post by @StatGarrett - so all credits go to him and all errors are mine ✨)
@StatGarrett What reactivity does is "a magic trick [that] creates the illusion that one thing is happening, when in fact something else is going on" (shiny.rstudio.com/articles/under…).
👩🏼💻 How do you set up your own #ShinyApp?
It's easy in #rstats! Start a new #Rproject and select "Shiny Application". It will create a project with an "app.R" file for you ✨

Once it's open, you can replace the code that is already in the "app.R" file with this code snippet below👇 It does all the magic and shows how you can build a simple #ShinyApp 🔮

What the ShinyApp does:
You have checkboxes on the left side that let you choose countries (it's the ISO3 abbreviation, so "RWA" stands for Rwanda) and, depending on what you selected, your #ShinyApp will show a (non-realistic) population size for each country in a new plot.

💡 What is a ShinyApp?
Shiny is a framework that allows you to create web applications - ShinyApps ☺️ You can use them for multiple purposes - to visualize data 🎨 (for instance the Scottish Household Survey by @ViktErik, bit.ly/3TqZevY, ...

Excited to announce the publication of our new #dispersal paper, #Rstats package & #shinyapp @kindisperse with @molecology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…. We supply tools to simulate and estimate intergenerational dispersal via close kin. @PEARG_Lab @GrndCtrl2_DrTom

Intergenerational dispersal links the movements of organisms throughout their lives with the diffusion of a species' genetic information across space and time.
Its simplest form, parent-offspring dispersal, lies at the foundations of the theory of isolation by distance.

Estimating parent-offspring dispersal is difficult for species such as Aedes aegypti, as existing techniques don't track a single mosquito across its entire breeding cycle.
To do this, our method draws on two important features of intergenerational dispersal:

Have you shared fake news on Twitter? I designed an app that will tell you!
It will also tell you how many right-leaning, left-leaning, or hyper-partisan/low-quality news sites you have shared.
Try it out here, and share your score:

You can also see how much fake/low-quality websites that other people with public Twitter handles have shared.
I calculated the fake news "scores" of all US congress-members. Use the app to see which congress-member shares the most low-quality news.

Additionally, you can see the kind of language you've used on your Twitter profile (e.g., positive, negative, moral-emotional, or polarizing).
