Integrating React.js and Shiny
summary
Shows a concrete pipeline: use the reactR package plus JSX and V8 to wrap a React component into an HTML widget, bundle with yarn/webpack, and expose it in Shiny. Demonstrates a working Mapbox GL demo (markers, filtering, styles) built in an hour or two, with the React-to-Shiny adapter implemented in roughly 11 lines of glue code. Notes current gaps: browser-to-R inputs require extra JavaScript or experimental helpers, and some advanced React patterns (and crosstalk-like front-end aggregation) need more work.
