What's Changed

This release marks the first "beta" version of vegbankweb, the web app designed to update and replace http://www.vegbank.org/. It is structured as an R package containing an R Shiny app, and pulls data from the vegbankr api to populate its views. The app minimizes the data load on server memory by using paginated ajax requests for tables, but still fetches all of the plots' locations for display on the map. App state is encoded to and read from the url, allowing users to link and bookmark particular views. Rows in the tables highlight when inspected to indicate what is being explored in the detail view.

Tables supported:

• Plot Observations
• Plant Concepts
• Community Concepts
• Parties
• Projects

Detail views supported:

• Plot Observation
