Recently I have worked a lot with R and shiny to create interactive data visualizations or dashboards.

Because I have learned some small tricks to make applications better, more intuitive and faster, I thought it might be good to share them. I have created a repository on github which contains the code with the following functionality:

•  A multi-tabbed application (base shiny)
• Filtering of data through the use of sliders (base shiny)
• CSS integration
• Displaying and R-Markdown document
• Displaying data in a table using DataTable package
• Display data on a map with markers and circles using Leaflet package
• Enabling/disabling components with shinyJS package
• A simple login page
• Download functionality
• A contineous updating plot
• Integration of Google analytics
