6.2 Local deployment

If the R package has been installed on your computer, it is easy to run the application in the local environment.

Notably, the application is also dependent on some supplementary datasets (not in UCSC Xena) for extensive analysis. Considering the store limitation of R package and GitHub project, parts of them are deposited in Zenodo repository. When you first initiate the app, it could take some time to fetch these data. If it failed due to network, you can directly download them from Zenodo and then place on the inst/extdata directory.
