Create Excel, Word, and PowerPoint output from R — and more

Use R Markdown instead of complex Excel calculators. The code-based examples here are easier to maintain and less prone to error than their Excel equivalents. Example outputs include Microsoft Office common formats, PDF, interactive web apps, flexdashboard, parameterized R Markdown, html slides, and plumber API.

Overview

These dashboards and reports track key performance metrics for customers by week. Users can interact with these reports in order to pull the precise data they are looking for. Read more about the customer tracker on R Views or or view the code on Github.
