Example Shiny App on Heroku

This is an example Shiny application, which uses the heroku-buildpack-r on Heroku.

Shiny is an R package that makes it easy to build interactive web apps straight from R. You can host standalone apps on a webpage or embed them in R Markdown documents or build dashboards. You can also extend your Shiny apps with CSS themes, htmlwidgets, and JavaScript actions.
