darlanminussi / scrappy

Package for plotting quality of single-cell data

scrappy

scrappy provides an easy way to visualize the quality of scRNA single-cells.

Installation

You can install the development version with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("darlanminussi/scrappy")

scrappy uses the percentage of mitochondrial gene expression to classify the cells as:

😄: Great Quality.

🙂: Good quality.

🤢: OK quality.

💩: Low quality.

scrappy can be used on SingleCellExperiment objects as well as Seurat objects.

Example
