# mwanaApp: A seamless graphical interface to the mwana R package for data wrangling, plausibility checks, and prevalence estimation
`mwanaApp` is a lightweight, field-ready application thoughtful designed
to seamlessly streamline plausibility checks and wasting prevalence
estimation of child anthropometric data, by automating key steps of the
R package mwana for non-R users.
The app is divided in six easy-to-navigate tabs:
1. Home
2. Data Upload
3. Data Wrangling
4. Plausibility Check
5. Prevalence Analysis
6. IPC Check
## Installation
The App can be installed from GitHub:
``` r
# First install remotes package with: install.package("remotes")
# The install mwana package from GitHub with:
remotes::install_github(repo = "mphimo/mwanaApp", dependencies = TRUE)
```

```
The app can be cited in this way:
``` r
citation("mwanaApp")
```
