shinyglide
is an R package which provides carousel-like or assistant-like components to shiny applications, thanks to the Glide JavaScript library.
It allows to create this sort of app (live example) :
Or can be integrated into an existing app to create an "assistant-like" interface (live example):
shiny::conditionalPanel
)You can install the stable version with :
install.packages("shinyglide")
And the development version with :
remotes::install_github("juba/shinyglide")
A shinyglide
component is created with the glide()
function. This component is then divided intro screens with the screen()
function.
Here is the code of a very basic app (live example):
library(shiny)
library(shinyglide)
ui <- fixedPage(style = "max-width: 500px;",
titlePanel("Simple shinyglide app"),
glide(
height = "350px",
screen(
p("This is a very simple shinyglide application."),
p("Please click on Next to go to the next screen.")
),
screen(
p("Please choose a value."),
numericInput("n", "n", value = 10, min = 10)
),
screen(
p("And here is the result."),
plotOutput("plot")
)
)
)
server <- function(input, output, session) {
output$plot <- renderPlot({
hist(
rnorm(input$n),
main = paste("n =", input$n),
xlab = ""
)
})
}
shinyApp(ui, server)
