canvasXpress was developed as the core visualization component for bioinformatics and systems biology analysis.
It supports a large number of visualizations to display scientific and non-scientific
data. canvasXpress also includes a simple and unobtrusive user interface to explore complex data sets, a sophisticated and unique mechanism to keep track of all user customization for Reproducible Research purposes, as well as an 'out of the box'
broadcasting capability to synchronize selected data points in all canvasXpress plots in a page. Data can
be easily sorted, grouped, transposed, transformed or clustered dynamically. The fully customizable mouse events
as well as the zooming, panning and drag-and-drop capabilities are features that make this library unique in its
class.
canvasXpress can be now simply used within R at the console to generate conventional plots, in R-Studio
or seamlessly embedded in Shiny web applications. Full-fledged examples of the canvasXpress library including the mouse events, zooming, and broadcasting capabilities are included in this package in several examples that can be accessed using the cxShinyExample function. This canvasXpress R library was created with the htmlwidgets package.
