Structure of a Shiny App
Shiny apps are contained in a single script called app.R
app.R has three components:
- a user interface object
- a server function
- a shinyApp function
The user interface ui object controls the layout and appearance of our app. The server function contains the instructions that our computer needs to build app. Finally the shinyApp function creates Shiny app from an explicit UI/server pair.
