Covid-19 Dashboard

less than 1 minute read

My first r shiny project is a coronavirus dashboard.

I know there are already many dashboards out there, but it was for my personal practice and fun to make :)

*Note: This app is not optimized for mobile. I’m working on a solution. If you know a quick way to optimize shiny apps for mobile devices, please contact me (linkedin or E-Mail

It features:

  • Cases over time countries

  • Availability to select multiple countries countries

  • Word Clouds containing the most frequent words of news pages related to the coronavirus

(I have ideas about extending this feature to google trends & tweets, applying topic modelling algorithms or sentiment analysis)

countries

Data is simply loaded via Rami Krispin’s daily updated dataset:

coronavirus <- read.csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RamiKrispin/coronavirus/master/csv/coronavirus.csv", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
