4 years ago just a note to self: I tried suppressing the navbar inside the shiny app, and instead placing the navs inside the sidebar. This would work, except for the fact that the sidebar and its inputs aren't visible on all pages. I could make them visible on all pages, but that would be confusing, because the inputs actually only work on the first page.
So it's best not to try this and just build a shiny (shinydashboard?) page from scratch with a vertical navigation only.
it looks pretty bad to have two horizontal navbars in the shiny app, one from the pkgdown site, the other from the shiny app. This also messes up the vertical alignment.
Unfortunately, just supressing the horizontal navbar in flexdashboard does not work, because there is no easy/elegant alternative way to access the different pages.
