  3. Creating Dashboards with shinydashboard

Exercise

Incorporate icons

Icons are a great way to make your dashboard look more polished! Remember the notification menu we created in Chapter 1? Spruce it up with a rocket icon! You can find other possible icons on the Font Awesome website. Recall that icons can be rendered using the icon() function in shiny; for example, the following will render a coffee icon:

icon("coffee")

The Font Awesome name for the rocket icon is "rocket".

Instructions

100 XP
  • Add the Font Awesome rocket icon to the task item.
  • Rerun the shiny app with these updates.
