ampvis2 is an R-package to conveniently visualise and analyse 16S rRNA amplicon data in different ways.
First, install R (3.5.x or later) and RStudio. Windows users should also install RTools. Then open RStudio as administrator (!) and run the commands below to install ampvis2 from the console:
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("MadsAlbertsen/ampvis2")For a quick guide on how to use ampvis2 go to the Get Started page. Detailed documentation of all ampvis2 functions can be found at the Functions page.
Check out the blog posts at http://albertsenlab.org/ about selected ampvis2 plotting functions. The posts include details as well as example code:

An interactive Shiny app with some of the basic functionality of ampvis2 can be found at: https://kasperskytte.shinyapps.io/shinyampvis
To install a specific (older) release of ampvis2 use "@release" as suffix, fx remotes::install_github("madsalbertsen/ampvis2@2.0") to install the first release (2.0) of ampvis2. The latest stable release can be installed with remotes::install_github("madsalbertsen/ampvis2@*release").
