# dandelionR
Welcome to `dandelionR`!
`dandelionR` is an R package for performing single-cell immune repertoire trajectory analysis, based on the original python implementation in [`dandelion`](https://www.github.com/zktuong/dandelion).
It provides all the necessary tools to interface with [`scRepertoire`](https://github.com/ncborcherding/scRepertoire) and a custom implementation of absorbing markov chain for pseudotime inference, inspired based on the [palantir](https://github.com/dpeerlab/Palantir) python package.
## Installation from Bioconductor
You can install `dandelionR` from Bioconductor with:
```R
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("dandelionR")
```
## Installation from GitHub
You can install `dandelionR` from GitHub with:
```R
if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github('tuonglab/dandelionR', dependencies = TRUE)
```
## Quick Start
```R
library(dandelionR)
```
This is a work in progress, so please feel free to open an issue if you encounter any problems or have any suggestions for improvement.
