An empty shinyApp

At this point, you know what makes a shinyApp. For starters, you can first set up an empty shinyApp just as we did in the video.

To do this, recall the restaurant analogy where the app user is like the patron, the UI is like the table at which the patron is sitting at, and the server is like the helpful waiter.

In the exercise, you will need to identify these components to render a blank shinyApp.
