Flexdashboard

Dynamically Rendered Flexdashboard Pages Using RMarkdown Childs

Dashboards are nice tools when it comes to analyzing quickly changing data. Nevertheless, you may also use them for reporting purposes by taking snapshots. R has a nice library called flexdashboard which you can use for creating dashboards out of RMarkdown files. During a project at work we found a nice solution for dynamically rendering flexdashboard pages by using R Markdown child templates which I want to share with you in this blog post.
