The goal of shinyNextUI is to provide a wrapper around the HeroUI React library.

Notes

shinyNextUI is currently in alpha. Please carefully look at the current issues.

The current roadmap:

  • Provide more aliases to match Shiny’s vanilla notations like selectInput, …
  • Refine the navbar template.
  • Allow to dynamically create themes.

shinyNextUI leverages tailwind css and some rules have already been pre-compiled to use in the various examples. If you need custom styles, you can use the {windy} package.

Demo

library(shiny)
library(shinyNextUI)
library(shiny.react)

shinyAppDir(system.file("showcase", package = "shinyNextUI"))

Installation

You can install the development version of shinyNextUI from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("RinteRface/shinyNextUI")

Example

To quickly get started with any example:

library(shinyNextUI)
# Get all examples
get_examples()
# Select an example and run the app
run_example("card")

Developer

shinyNextUI leverages tailwind for the CSS management and webpack as JS bundler and a mix between shiny.react and reactR for components and input management.

Within the js folder, run npm install. Then, for each change:

# Update CSS
npx tailwindcss -i ./src/input.css -o ./src/output.css --watch

# Change JS files
yarn webpack
