Palantir's Blueprint for Shiny Apps

Why `shiny.blueprint`?

We believe that a great UI plays a huge role in the success of application projects. shiny.blueprint gives your apps:

a beautiful, professional look;
a rich set of components easily usable in Shiny;
fast speed of development that Shiny is famous for.

To see shiny.blueprint in action check out the Blueprint Showcase app with all the available components and R usage examples.

Stable version:

install.packages("shiny.blueprint", dependencies = TRUE)

Development version:

remotes::install_github("Appsilon/shiny.blueprint", dependencies = TRUE)

With dependencies = TRUE the suggested packages (required to run some examples) will be installed in addition to mandatory dependencies.

Here's how to create a basic shiny.blueprint app:

library(shiny)
library(shiny.blueprint)

shinyApp(
  ui = tagList(
    Switch.shinyInput(
      inputId = "animate",
      value = TRUE,
      label = "Animate"
    ),
    reactOutput("progress")
  ),
  server = function(input, output) {
    output$progress <- renderReact({
      ProgressBar(animate = input$animate)
    })
  }
)

The majority of Blueprint components are available in shiny.blueprint. Start typing shiny.blueprint:: in RStudio to see all available components. Visit the Blueprint docs to see what arguments (props) can be passed to the components.

All components have usage examples in R. Type ?shiny.blueprint::ComponentName to see the code or shiny.blueprint::runExample("ExampleName") to launch it. Run this function without arguments to see a list of all available examples.

A showcase application with all components can be launched with shiny.blueprint::runExample("showcase") or by visiting this link.
