Why Plotly? πŸ“Š

Plotly turns a static ggplot into something you can:

  • Hover over points to see details
  • Zoom & pan to explore clusters
  • Toggle continents on/off in the legend

It’s the difference between looking at data and playing with it.

The Data: Gapminder 🌍

We’ll use the classic gapminder dataset β€” life expectancy, GDP per capita, and population for countries around the world over time.

gapminder %>%
  filter(year == 2007) %>%
  select(country, continent, lifeExp, gdpPercap) %>%
  head(5)
## # A tibble: 5 Γ— 4
##   country     continent lifeExp gdpPercap
##   <fct>       <fct>       <dbl>     <dbl>
## 1 Afghanistan Asia         43.8      975.
## 2 Albania     Europe       76.4     5937.
## 3 Algeria     Africa       72.3     6223.
## 4 Angola      Africa       42.7     4797.
## 5 Argentina   Americas     75.3    12779.

The Interactive Plot 🎈

Try It Yourself πŸ–±οΈ

On the plot from the previous slide, try:

  1. Hovering over a big bubble β€” probably a populous country
  2. Clicking a continent in the legend to hide/show it
  3. Dragging a box on the plot to zoom into a region
  4. Double-clicking to reset the zoom
