R is just easier for some things...
Here's why. ๐Ÿงต
#rstats #datascience
I've seen it a lot on Social Media... Throwing stones at R Shiny.
Well, I'm here to say that R Shiny is the most UNDERRATED web app software in the data science ecosystem.
How can I say this?
Because I've been paid $25,000+ for apps made with R shiny...
That I've built in under 1 week.
And this is all while the "python data scientists" are complaining about why "R shiny can't be used in a production environment."
The sad fact is that THEIR models NEVER make it into production!
Here's why...
1. THEIR tech stack is OVERLY complicated
Sometimes you just need a quick win...
And getting something built in 1 week is a lot better than taking 2 years
2. THEY depend on IT which has a HUGE backlog in every organization I've ever seen
IT = CAREER HAND CUFFS
IT has a backlog...
A priority system...
And IT moves slowly.
So, THEY wonder why they are 2 years into a project AND still have NOTHING to show for it.
Meanwhile, the R Data Scientists are happy to report they've released 4 shiny apps this quarter that are helping all parts of the company.
Which camp do you think is getting a promotion this year?
Exactly!
Now I will say this...
It took me 5 years to get to the point where I was making $25,000 for R shiny apps.
But it can be done A LOT faster.
In fact, I put together a free "blueprint to becoming a 6-figure data scientist" presentation so you can see the 10 skills needed to be a 6-figure data scientist with R Shiny.
This presentation will CUT 2 years of time off of your data science journey.
What's Your Next Step?
Just watch my free training AND cut your data science journey in HALF.
