Interactive exploratory analysis of instacart top selling products

Istacart dataset used for this exercise had 1384617 observations and 15 variables.

Flexdashboard for produce department

Produce department had the most products purchased. I created a flexdashboard to conduct exploratory analyses of that department by evaluating the following:

• Product demand in each aisle of produce department, based on the number of items purchased;

• Relationship between days since the last order and the order in which an order was added to the cart for top 5 items from produce department. My hypothesis is that the relationship will have a negative association (the item which hasnt been purchased for longer time would go into the cart first);

• Barpot of top 10 items in produce department;

• Boxplot of order hour of the day for top 10 items in produce department.

Shiny dashboard was created to explore data in the fashion of flexdashboard but with flexibility to conduct the visualization for any department`s top n products.
