Static table
Let's imagine that your dashboard viewers need to see how many trips started and ended at each bikeshare station to manage balancing of bikes. We can provide this information in a simple table.
This exercise is part of the course
Building Dashboards with flexdashboard
Exercise instructions
- Add a table in the Station Usage chart that contains the data in
station_trips_df, using thekable()function. - Knit and expand the HTML viewer to explore the resulting table. Try scrolling down.
