ggplot2 is an R package for producing visualizations of data. In this workshop you will learn about the conceptual framework based on the grammar of graphics which allows users to build customizable plots with ggplot2. You will learn to create commonly used data visualizations like scatterplots or boxplots, add statistical annotations such as regression lines, and customize the layouts, fonts and colors for your visualizations.
Prerequisites: Participants should be familiar with R at the level of the R Fundamentals Bootcamp, another introductory R workshop, or be a self-taught R coder. Prior to the workshop, please ensure that you have R, Rstudio and the tidyverse library installed on your computer. You can find information on how to install these items here.
The workshop notebook can be accessed online through Google Colab here.
