shinyganttrify

You like Gantt charts as produced by the ganttrify R package but you’re not really into R? Or perhaps, you really just want to empower your colleagues to make nice-looking Gantt charts. Well, here you are, and you’re very welcome.

With shinyganttrify you create Gantt charts directly through a web interface: you can use the version kindly hosted by EDJNet, or you can run it locally, running shiny_ganttrify() just after installation.

Installation

Make sure to install also the ganttrify package, otherwise it won’t work.

remotes::install_github("giocomai/ganttrify")
remotes::install_github("giocomai/shinyganttrify")

How does this work?

After you’ve installed the package, all you need to do is to run the following line:

shinyganttrify::shiny_ganttrify()

And this is what you should see right in front of you:

<figure> <img src="man/figures/shiny_ganttrify_screenshot.png" alt="A screenshot of the Shiny app" /> <figcaption aria-hidden="true">A screenshot of the Shiny app</figcaption> </figure>

You can check it online with no further ado at the following link:

(N.B.: not all features are exposed in the shiny app)

Shiny app on Docker

Alright, you don’t know like R, but you know how Docker works?

This is all you need to find yourself a nice web app on localhost

docker run -p 80:80 giocomai/ganttrify
