Any timeline on when this might be integrated into shiny? This would be a very useful feature.

What exactly is the problem that widgetframe will solve in a shiny environment? To be honest I really don't know much about shiny, but I am willing to provide shiny integration, if we can have the problem documented.

In my opinion flexdashboard is pretty close to shiny, in a designated format.

I think this widget do benefits ppl who are looking for the responsive part. Shiny's native support on responsive component isn't that great / take much time to manage it.

It's also my perception that the purpose of htmlwidgets is to define a framework that allows ppl to utilize the widget without having to worry about platform (shiny, rstudio view, markdown, etc).

Just my 2 cents.

@bhaskarvk it solves any problem where rendering must occur in isolation. For example, shiny/rmarkdown both prefer HTML-based MathJax rendering, but plotly prefers SVG-based rendering. I'd like to suggest this package for rendering plotly's SVG (in isolation), but inside a larger shiny/rmarkdown project with HTML MathJaX, but I currently can't do that for shiny -- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ropensci/plotly/master/inst/examples/rmd/MathJax/index.Rmd
