When added to an existing shiny app, users may subset any developer-chosen R data.frame on the fly. That is, users are empowered to slice & dice data by applying multiple (order specific) filters using the AND (&) operator between each, and getting real-time updates on the number of rows effected/available along the way. Thus, any downstream processes that leverage this data source (like tables, plots, or statistical procedures) will re-render after new filters are applied. The shiny moduleâ s user interface has a minimalist aesthetic so that the focus can be on the data & other visuals. In addition to returning a reactive (filtered) data.frame, IDEAFilter as also returns dplyr filter statements used to actually slice the data.
