    It is one of the very rare case where I prefer base R to .





    Using from


    also allows to build heatmaps thanks to . However, I personally prefer the function above since only it offers option for normalization, clustering and Dendrogram.





    Interactive heatmaps from R


    Three options exist to build an interactive heatmap from :

    • : as described above, plotly allows to turn any heatmap made with interactive.

    • : a package that uses the same syntax as the base R heatmap() function to make interactive version.

    • : the most flexible option, allowing many different kind of customization.

      See the code of the chart beside here.
