Whether you're a seasoned Shiny app developer or you're just excited that you were able to complete the tutorial, shinyjs can probably improve your apps within seconds. There are many nseemingly mundane functions that many Shiny users often want to perform: hiding/showing an element, disabling/enabling an input, resetting an input back to its original value, and many nothers. The shinyjs package makes all of these extremely easy by calling a single function. All of this is done using JavaScript (JS) under the hood, but you don't have to know that! If you do know JS, shinyjs also lets you interface with JS in a simple way and provides an easy way to call your own JS functions as if they were R code. This talk will introduce you to the wonderful world of shinyjs, and hopefully leave you excited to build more Shiny apps!
