Overview: As part of the data science life cycle series in R, this workshop will introduce you to creating a dynamic website to display your analytical results and data sets. The R shiny package allows you to create nice-looking interactive dashboards.

At the end of this workshop, you will be able to
  - understand the logic of building shiny apps
   - build a basic dashboard
   - create input fields and manipulate the output of the dashboard
