gWidgets: Overview
Michael F. Lawrence, John Verzani · 2018
The gWidgets package provides a convenient means to create rapidly small to medium-size GUIs within R. The package provides an abstract interface for the other graphical toolkits discussed in this text, allowing for similar access to each. Unlike the underlying toolkits, gWidgets has relatively few constructors and methods. Basically, the entire set is enumerated in Tables 2.2 , 3.1 , 3.2 , and 4.1 . This means gWidgets is relatively easy to learn, allowing for rapid prototyping. (It also means that as projects progress, one might need to move to a more powerful underlying toolkit.)
