The course introduces five popular options: Leaflet, Plotly, Highcharter, visNetwork, and DataTables (DT). Instructor Martin Hadley shows how to use these libraries to create scattergeo, choropleth, and geolines maps; stacked bar charts, scatter charts, bubble charts, and heat maps; treemaps and time series charts; interactive networks and graphs; and responsive, interactive data tables. Plus, learn how to customize your visualizations with legends and tooltips, and extract click information for Shiny apps.

- [Martin] Hi, I'm Martin John Hadley. I work as a data visualization specialist, where I use HTML widgets to rapidly create, and design rich interactive data visualizations in R. In this course, I'll show you a range of different HTML widget libraries, and how they can be used to create the following charts. Interactive bar charts, including both grouped, and stacked bar charts. Interactive maps, including scattered geo plots, choropleth, and more, as well as interactive network or graph visualizations.
We'll cover how to customize your visualizations with legends and tool tips, and even how to extract click information from your charts within Shiny apps. Okay, let's go.
