Shiny is an R language framework that is used to create interactive and powerful web apps. Shiny can be used as a standalone app on a web page or as a build dashboard using R Markdown. This allows us to explore, download, and analyze data using a web browser. Shiny apps can be extended using CSS, JavaScript, and even an HTML widgets package.

  • Introducing Shiny functions to produce HTML
  • Creating a Shiny app using HTML and CSS
