Making All Charts React to Inputs
Now let's make the whole dashboard respond to user inputs!
This exercise is part of the course
Building Dashboards with flexdashboard
Exercise instructions
- Like you did with the map in the previous exercise, now make the other two charts (the
valueBox()
and theggplot
) react to user input.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
