Create Volcano Plots for Differential Gene Expression Data

Creates customizable volcano plots for differential gene expression results from RNA-seq analyses. Accepts result objects or tables from 'DESeq2', 'edgeR', and 'limma' directly, with automatic column detection. Labels the most significant or chosen genes, colors gene sets, compares several contrasts side by side, offers colorblind-safe color presets, and can produce interactive plots with 'ggiraph'. Gene tables are rendered with 'gt' and composed with 'patchwork'.
