riskyrApp

The riskyrApp is an interactive application that complements the R package riskyr.

Goal

riskyrApp is a teaching tool that showcases some functionality of the R package riskyr. The application is written in R Shiny and allows using the riskyr toolbox without any need for coding.

The main goal of both riskyr and riskyrApp is to communicate and explain common risk literacy measures in a transparent fashion by providing a set of powerful and interactive representations.
