Added Shiny app example #185

Closed pablobernabeu closed 4 years ago

Nice work!

I just tried to start the example and got stuck with the usual problem of R repos: they take a long time to build. Which made me wonder: does it make sense to link to a particular revision of the example repo instead of master so that users don't have to wait for rebuilds? We can then periodically update which revision the example links to to get new changes in.

Thank you!

I didn't know that specific versions took less time to build. Sounds great. I'll edit the link. No worries about updating it later, as I don't think I'll be changing the app much.

Thanks! They don't build faster but they (should) require building less often. So the time to launch them should be shorter for more people (as less people need to wait for a build). (What a convoluted sentence :) )
