R Shiny - From Conception to the Cloud

on YouTube ↗14m

" summary

Shows how a Shiny app is built and pushed to AWS using golem for modular apps, GitLab pipelines for CI/CD, Git for collaboration and renv/packrat for dependency management. Team splits five dashboards into modules, backs data in SQLite locally then Amazon Redshift, and fixes hardcoded secrets with .Renviron environment variables. Packaging the app and running unit tests catches missing dependencies; the first deploys fail repeatedly (about ten times) so a dev and staging cloud replicate production for safe releases and fast reuse.
