I am getting the following error while installing the tool:
devtools::install_github("nygenome/SCANVIS")

I was able to reproduce your error. We have been meaning to update the documentation on here, as Bioconductor is a more recent source to download this software.

See here to try installing using Bioconductor rather than from this Github: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/SCANVIS.html
