Themes

Shiny makes it easy to customize the theme of an app. The UI functions in Shiny make use of Twitter Bootstrap, a popular framework for building web applications. Bootswatch extends Bootstrap by making it really easy to skin an application with minimal code changes.

In this exercise, you will add a title panel to your app, use the theme selector to explore different themes, and apply then a theme of your choice.
