Abstract

The Red-R Framework is a visual programming environment for data analysis. The framework focuses on data interactivity, readability, and share-ability. Interaction is provided in a canvas in which users visually wire functional modules together. A logging system and saving modules ensure that data are reproducible, shareable, and well documented. The underlying philosophy of Red-R is that users with all levels of expertise should use the same software to analyse data. While Red-R provides an environment in which users can easily interact with data using graphical user interfaces, it also provides the underlying power of R and Python for data analysis. Herein, we describe the Red-R Framework.
