TnT is a R package that wraps the [TnT javascript libraries](https://github.com/tntvis)
to provide track-based visulizations from R.
It is useful for displaying genomic features as a simple genome browser, particularly
when working with relevant Bioconductor packages.
To install the stable version from biocondcutor, use
```R
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("TnT")
```
Or alternatively, install the latest version from github with
```R
devtools::install_github("Marlin-Na/TnT")
```
To get started, checkout:
- The package vignette [Introduction to TnT](https://tnt.marlin.pub/articles/introduction.html)
- [Examples](https://tnt.marlin.pub/articles/examples) of different track types.
You can also find the [package](http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/TnT.html)
on Bioconductor.
### GSoC 2017
This R package was a Google Summer of Code project in 2017, kindly mentored by
Toby Dylan Hocking and Miguel Pignatelli, under the organization of R project
for statistical computing.
