This is the ***FreesearchR*** data analysis tool, a free tool for basic data evaluation and analysis. If you need more advanced tools, start with ***FreesearchR*** and then you'll probably be better off using *R* or similar directly.

With this tool you can:

1.  **Import data** from a spreadsheet/file on your machine, directly from a [REDCap](https://projectredcap.org/ "Read more on the data capture tool REDCap") server, try it with sample data or access data directly [if run in R locally](https://agdamsbo.github.io/FreesearchR//#run-locally-on-your-own-machine "Read about running FreesearchR on your local machine")

2.  **Prepare** data for analysis by filtering data, modifying variables or create new variables

3.  **Evaluate data** using descriptive analyses methods and inspect cross-correlations as well as [missing observations](https://agdamsbo.github.io/FreesearchR/articles/missingness.html "Read more about missing data")

4.  **Visualise data** by [creating simple, clean plots](https://agdamsbo.github.io/FreesearchR/articles/visuals.html "See available plot types") for overview and quick insights

5.  **Create simple regression models** for even more advanced data analyses

6.  **Download** results as a report, get the modified data set and save the code for learning and to reproduce the results later

The full [project documentation is here](https://agdamsbo.github.io/FreesearchR/) where you'll find detailed descriptions of the app and link to the source code! If you want to [share feedback, please follow this link to a simple survey](https://redcap.au.dk/surveys/?s=JPCLPTXYDKFA8DA8).
