It’s been a while since I’ve posted on this blog or have worked on a Tidy Tuesday project, so I thought I’d revisit and post the project I did in January for R4DataScience to visualize climate data during the Australia wildfires earlier this year.

For Week 50 of the R4datascience project, I used the provided diseases data mentioned in this SimplyStats blog post. The dataset contains state level data of vaccine preventable infectious diseases over the span of ~70 years.

Welcome to the first post of my blogdown blog! Although I started writing this post in November 2019, it’s still been in the drafts as of currently June 2020 😅. I figured the debut post would be best dedicated to sharing my personal experience of using this package as an R user with little to no background in web development.
