Is it possible to run Shiny apps from within Visual Studio if I'm using R Tools for Visual Studio (RTVS). If yes, how?
Open the app. R script in your RStudio editor. RStudio will recognize the Shiny script and provide a Run App button (at the top of the editor). Either click this button to launch your app or use the keyboard shortcut: Command+Shift+Enter (Control+Shift+Enter on Windows).
But the simplest way to run a Shiny app is to run it locally. You only need the shiny R package installed, and you can run the app in your browser.
Host your Shiny apps on the web in minutes with Shinyapps.io. It is easy to use, secure, and scalable. No hardware, installation, or annual purchase contract required.
Shiny is an R package that makes it easy to build interactive web apps straight from R. You can host standalone apps on a webpage or embed them in R Markdown documents or build dashboards. You can also extend your Shiny apps with CSS themes, htmlwidgets, and JavaScript actions.
I thought there wasn't, but as it turns out, there is a "Run Shiny App" button in RTVS!
