summary
ggvis turns ggplot2 into interactive web graphics by generating standard HTML/CSS/JavaScript pages so charts work in the browser and on iPads, aiming for polished exploratory plots that require only 5–10 lines of R code. contrasts D3 and Tableau as more production communication tools. notes widespread R use outside statistics, common practice of mixing languages (SQL as a near-universal second language), and a clear wish to make R much faster.
