Examples

if (interactive()) {
    library(dash)

    app <- Dash$new()

    app$layout(htmlDiv(list(
              # represents the URL bar, doesn't render anything
              dccLocation(id = 'url', refresh=FALSE),
              dccLink('Navigate to "/"', href='/'),
              htmlBr(),
              dccLink('Navigate to "/page-2"', href='/page-2'),

              # content will be rendered in this element
              htmlDiv(id='page-content')
            )
        )
    )

    app$callback(output=list(id='page-content', property='children'),
                params=list(
              input(id='url', property='pathname')),
              function(pathname)
              {
