8 Interactive Data Exploration

sclet integrates iSEE to provide a Shiny-based interactive explorer for your SingleCellExperiment objects.

8.1 Launch Explorer

You can launch the explorer directly from your R console:

library(sclet)
sce <- readRDS("data/pbmc-3k-sce.qs")

# Launch the app
RunExplorer(sce)

This will open a web browser where you can:

• Visualize reduced dimensions (UMAP, PCA)
• Explore gene expression on the plot
• Check column data (QC metrics, Clusters)
• Select points and inspect data

8.2 Customization

RunExplorer passes additional arguments to iSEE::iSEE(), allowing you to pre-configure panels.

# Example: Start with just a ReducedDimensionPlot and a FeaturePlot
library(iSEE)
initial <- list(
    ReducedDimensionPlot(PanelId=1L),
    FeatureAssayPlot(PanelId=1L)
)

RunExplorer(sce, initial = initial)
