omnipresent explorer of the unknown, fashionably caffeinated informatics phd, amorous cavalier. design, build, analyze. #rstats on #macos + #webr and #python with #pyodide
Linux support 🐧

Same #rshiny → desktop workflow on #Fedora 42 aarch64:

shinyelectron::export() → #rshinylive#AppImage → portable #Linux app

Plot twist: no more "go buy yourself a real computer" moments - you get zero #rstats dependencies too! The condescending Unix users have won this round.

By request: Same #rshiny app → native #electron desktop app workflow now on #Windows11

shinyelectron::export() → #rshinylive → installer → app.exe

[Worth the Parallels license to record this from my Mac]

Still no #rstats dependencies for end users. Living the cross-platform life (virtually).

Prototyping #rshiny apps to native #electron desktop apps:

shinyelectron::export() → #rshinylive conversion → .dmg → Native Mac app

Zero #rstats dependencies for end users! Early days but promising 👀
