It would be great to share woprVision to external reviewers of newly produced gridded estimates. @doug-leasure how feasible it is would you reckon?

@edarin , I think Shiny Server has functionality for user accounts. If a user was logged into the app, you may be able to add functionality to server.R so that it modifies the "active" column in wopr:::woprVision_global$version_info to activate a pre-release dataset for certain users.

Seems possible but I haven't tried it before so I'm sure that I'm overlooking important details!

@bondarenkom , you looked into user accounts before, didn't you?
