"Drill down" capabilities provide a means to evaluate subject level data. The tool is accompanied by a comprehensive "clinical workflow" that guides the user through a series of evaluations each with a textual discussion regarding the goal of the evaluation step and the relevance of any findings with references to the supporting nephrology literature. + +## Using the App + +nepExplorer was built using the safetyGraphics framework and uses a settings object to map fields from input data sets to chart aesthetics and configuration options. A demo of the app is available [here](https://sb75h1-preston0burns.shinyapps.io/nep-explorer/). + +The {nepExplorer} package can be used in two ways: + +- As a standalone app using create_nepexplorer_app(). See [code example](https://github.com/SafetyGraphics/nepExplorer/blob/master/inst/examples/standalone_app.R) here. + +- As a shiny module within a [safetyGraphics](https://github.com/SafetyGraphics/safetyGraphics) application. See [code example](https://github.com/SafetyGraphics/nepExplorer/blob/master/inst/examples/safetyGraphics_demo_app.R) here. + +Data domain, field, and format expectations are detailed in the [Data and Settings Guidelines Wiki](https://github.com/SafetyGraphics/nepExplorer/wiki/Data-and-Settings-Guidelines). + +If it's your first time configuring and running nepExplorer, check out the Configuration vignette for a walkthrough.
