(1/12) Announcing R CHARTS, the new #rstats and #rstatsES #dataviz site which includes, per language:

πŸ“ˆ Over 1100 #ggplot2 and base R charts
πŸ§‘β€πŸ« Over 120 tutorials
πŸ“Š Over 50 different chart types
🎨 Several color & palette tools

r-charts.com

Made with #blogdown 🀩
(2/12) The site contains 8 different categories (the Spatial section is under construction) based on the Financial Times Visual Vocabulary:

(3/12) Once you pick a category you will see all the available #rstats charts for that category.

You can filter them by their chart type and base R or #ggplot2.

(4/12) Each tutorial provides an easy-to-follow comprehensive guide with lots of examples of the process of creating and customizing each graph.

It is possible to copy each chunk pressing the copy button on the top-right corner.
(5/12) There are also two pages that contain all the tutorials both for base R or ggplot2 graphics:

r-charts.com/ggplot2/

r-charts.com/base-r/
(6/12) There is also a page that contains all the colors from the colors() function. πŸ‘¨πŸŽ¨

You can copy its name, its HEX reference or convert them to RGB with the color converter.

The page also provides a color picker to preview the colors.

(7/12) The color palettes page contains almost 500 different discrete, continuous and dynamic palettes from 16 different #rstats packages.

You can copy each color individually or use the whole palette with the corresponding package or with {paletteer}.

(8/12) There is an additional color tool: a color palette generator (single-hue and diverging tabs are under construction). 🎨🎨

Pick the colors, create your own color palettes and copy them as R vectors.

(9/12) The website provides a live search feature built with Fuse.js. This was definitely the hardest thing to achieve. πŸ”ŽπŸ”Ž

You can open it pressing Shift or pressing the corresponding button (πŸ”) of the header.
(10/12) Both the content and the HUGO theme of the site were developed by a single person. 😎

It took me about 7 months creating this web, working full time, even weekends and holidays. 😳

(11/12) All you can see was developed without any financial support. If you want to support me you can do it via this site:

If you, your company or institution want to place ads on my sites please get in touch with me via email.
(12/12) Enjoy the site, share it with your colleagues and please try not to overload my server!
