teal is an interactive data exploration framework based on Shiny, designed primarily to analyze CDISC clinical trial data.

A Shiny Application created with teal offers users the ability to:

  • Import data from external sources;
  • Dynamically filter data for analysis;
  • Generate reproducible code for future analysis;
  • Create and download reports of analysis results (for analysis modules that support reporting).

Moreover, the teal framework provides application developers with a wide range of customizable standard analysis modules to integrate into their applications, along with a logging framework that facilitates debugging. Additionally, advanced users of the framework can develop new analysis modules and easily integrate them into any teal application.

The teal framework’s functionality draws heavily from the following packages:

R package Description
teal shiny-based interactive exploration framework for analyzing data
teal.widgets shiny UI components used within teal
teal.data provides the data structure used in all teal applications
teal.slice provides the filter panel to allow dynamic filtering of data
teal.code provides a mechanism for tracking code to reproduce an analysis
teal.logger standardizes logging within teal framework
teal.reporter allows teal applications to generate reports

Although these packages are mentioned in the material, we strongly recommend visiting their vignettes to learn more about them.
