I love this, Richard! Thank you!

Can you make the title: "Forrt community Map" as "FORRT Community Map"?

Also, instead of the note, you can write:

The FORRT Community Map is a visualization tool that illustrates the global reach and diversity of the Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training (FORRT) community. As of January 2024, this map provides a snapshot of FORRT's members worldwide, highlighting FORRT's extensive international collaboration and its commitment to fostering open and reproducible research practices across various regions. The map underscores FORRT's dedication to inclusivity and its efforts to build a diverse network of scholars, educators, and researchers united in advancing open science principles.

Thank you so much, Richard!

looks better now

Oh man, it seems I have not understood yet how PRs work. I didn't realize there was another PR open on this issue. @LukasWallrich can later tell me how I can do better next time!

In any case, I made a request for how to present the data we have so far, and I linked it in the other PRs, let me know how what's the best way to proceed and I will get it done! Thank you @richarddushime !

Hi there @richarddushime so sorry for my delay, it seems that there are conflicts for the menu again. My fault! Sorry!
This looks good. I was also wondering if we cannot do something like the amazing folks at PSA: I will paste their map here (I think they do it similar to what we do, but they use Jitter for the points (instead of large circles). I think can display both but theirs is a really nice way too that works best for slides/presentation in my opinion. Super OK if not possible!

My previous comment

Well its nice but I think the one in the PR is better due to features the map has
like the bigger the point the higher the number of people in that area
different colors too

secondly would you also suggest which one we are going to use ?
either the shinny app or the HTML file ???

Then I could focus on improving the selected one

Just adding here my other comment in another PR:

Hi @richarddushime , can you point me to the html file you are talking about? I am not sure what it is. I love the app for what's worth :)

The suggestion of the picture above is just a way to represent things in a different way. I like the way we do it in the map, but it emphasizes (a lot) Europe, so I am trying to find ways to highlight our diversity. Also, you should know I can be a little 'too much' regarding Visualizations of data: https://flavioazevedo.com/visualizations

@flavioazevedo this PR has a generated html map same as the shinny app
this is what I was talking about ,

suggested by @LukasWallrich

[flavioazevedo]

Lukas knows far more about these things than I do so if he says we need the html (I am not sure how is that different I still see the map with the same functionalities, which are nice), the so be it. It might be faster to load as Shiny apps are notoriously slow. By the way it says: "This branch is out-of-date with the base branch" so probably it needs some updating. I will try to do that now.
