Interactive complex heatmaps in R

Details

iheatmapr is a package for building complex, interactive heatmaps in R that can be explored in interactive R sessions or incorporated into rmarkdown documents, shiny applications, or standalone html files.

The package includes a modular system for building up complex heatmaps, where subplots get iteratively added to the top/left/right/bottom of the main heatmap(s). The iheatmap function provides a wrapper around many of the common modular subcomponents to build fairly standard, moderately complex heatmap.

See the vignette for detailed instructions for how to use the package.

iheatmapr uses the plotly javascript library (https://plotly.com/) for making the interactive figures and htmlwidgets (http://www.htmlwidgets.org/) for rendering them in R.
