Note -- In case my Shiny App is Not Running...

I have seen it restart a few times --my apologies, this is the limit of my technical prowess...
So please use the following code to run my app:

library(shinyapps)
runGitHub("coursera_dataprod" , "kamilien1")

I found an issue if you run over 25 hours, and I made a forum thread on this topic:
https://class.coursera.org/devdataprod-030/forum/thread?thread_id=101

Also, if you have the same problem: I read on the shinyapps site that I get 25 active hours. I accidentally ran my app for 25 hours straight! So I think you'll need to use runGitHub(). Sorry, and thanks for being patient!

coursera_dataprod: Wordcloud an Article

Final project for Developing Data Products

There is a ui.R, server.R and helper.R file here.

This project creates a wordcloud of all text from the <p> html tag.

The user can input his own URL.

It was tested on Yahoo News articles, however, it works on other sites.

Additionally, there is a Slidify presentation.

Getting Started

Getting started is a cinc:

  1. Put in a URL of preferably a news article
  2. Hit the "Wordcloud a New Article Button" and watch a wordcloud appear!
  3. Play around with the sliders. The first one changes the color of the words by the frequency of their occurance. Higher values are easier to understand. The second slider shows the max number of words in the cloud.
  4. Rinse and repeat!
