States spend too much on clunky election night reporting. We just replaced ours using
#rstats
. dbplyr backend + reactable & leaflet viz +
#quartopub
site. Real magic happened with programmatic code chunks & targets pipeline done by

I know about Flourish and Datawrapper, but are there any other user-friendly map making apps people on here recommend? Specifically one that would be easy to map out clinic locations in a single state.

Had an issue where {htmlwidgets} in my shiny app weren't displaying in an iframe embedded on a website. Turned out to be a permissioning issue that was solved by calling the resource directly from the CDN.

Just finished a neat side project consulting with the Idaho Secretary of State's office to help create an
#rstats

#QuartoPub
website for election results, and it just worked (flawlessly!) last night with their primary election
