New cheat sheet#
The new Shiny cheat sheet provides an up-to-date reference to the most important Shiny functions.
The cheat sheet replaces the previous cheat sheet, adding new sections on single-file apps, reactivity, CSS and more. The new sheet also gave us a chance to apply some of the things we’ve learned about making cheat sheets since the original Shiny cheat sheet came out.
