Has anyone used Shiny (R package)? Thoughts? Recommendations? First time using R and I'll probably have to learn this package and language.

Shiny is pretty different from R. It’s essentially a layer between R and web dev so syntax is kind of a mixture of things. Personally not sure why anyone uses it anymore now that dashboarding tools are pretty robust. Regardless R studio (the company ) has very good resources.

It’s a bit challenging but start with small/basic application (think “hello world!” :) ) and go from there.

I built a small chat bot with it like ten years ago. The syntax is wonky but it got there.

I think python’s stuff might have surpassed it tho
