Slides from Praer's talk "Shiny development in an academic vs business setting"

Shiny is a popular R package for building interactive web apps – no web development knowledge required! Its ease-of-use and extendibility makes it popular in both academic and business settings, but implementation in the two environments can be rather different. I’ll share my experience writing shiny apps at a Max Planck Institute (a non-profit research institute) and trivago (a German hotel search engine), and how differences in task complexity, IT infrastructure and organisational mindset affected my approaches and the packages I used.
