# Shiny phyloseq interactive tool (IT)

[Shiny apps](https://shiny.posit.co/) are web apps using R functionality, that give easy responsive access to R packages.
Interactive tools are a great way to work with data interactively and responsive using Galaxy. In theory all shiny apps could become ITs, but so far the
wrapping and deployment of shiny apps as ITs was technically challenging. To facilitate the integration of Shiny apps as ITs, the Freiburg Galaxy team conducted a two-day hackathon in February, collaborating with members from the Bioconductor community, including Charlotte Soneson, Hans-Rudolf Hotz, and Federico Marini. During the event, best practices for developing ITs using Shiny apps were established, with a primary focus on creating a Docker image that can serve as a starting point for adding any Shiny app.

conducted a two-day hackathon in February, collaborating with members from the Bioconductor community, including Charlotte Soneson, Hans-Rudolf Hotz, and Federico Marini.
During the event, best practices for developing ITs using Shiny apps were established, with a primary focus on creating a Docker image that can serve as a starting point for adding any Shiny app.
As a proof-of-concept the [shiny-phyloseq app](https://github.com/joey711/shiny-phyloseq) has been wrapped as IT.
A fork of this Docker image tailored for the shiny app is available here: https://github.com/paulzierep/docker-phyloseq.
The image can be run locally to test the app and then must be deployed to [quay.io](https://quay.io) or any other Docker registry.
