scatterbar

scatterbar is an open-source R package for displaying proportional data across spatially resolved contexts. This is the scatterbar R documentation website. Questions, suggestions, or problems should be submitted as GitHub issues.

Overview

By combining the concepts of scatter plots and stacked bar charts, scatterbar allows users to visualize variations in proportional data data and compare across different spatial locations.

Installation

To install scatterbarfrom GitHub, we recommend using remotes:

require(remotes)
# remotes::install_github('JEFworks-Lab/scatterbar')
install.packages("scatterbar", repos = c('https://jefworks-lab.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'))
