reglScatterplotR

This is the development version of reglScatterplotR; to use it, please install the devel version of Bioconductor.

Interactive WebGL Scatterplots for Biological Data Exploration


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

Lightweight 'htmlwidgets' interface to the JavaScript 'regl-scatterplot' library, rendering millions of two-dimensional points in the browser via WebGL. Designed for exploratory visualisation of single-cell, spatial transcriptomics and other high-dimensional biological data. Features include synchronised pan/zoom across multiple plots, categorical and continuous colour mapping, lasso selection, range and category filtering, PNG/SVG/PDF export, and Shiny integration. The widget works in the 'RStudio' Viewer, standalone HTML files, Shiny applications and Jupyter notebooks running the 'IRkernel'.
