Introduction

bubblyr is an R wrapper of the JavaScript library bubbly-bg. It allows you to add beautiful animated bubbles within Shiny and RMarkdown backgrounds. You can choose from several themes and apply the animation with one line of code.

Installation

You can install the bubblyr package from CRAN with:

install.packages("bubblyr")

You can install the development version of bubblyr from Github with:

install.packages("remotes") #if not installed

remotes::install_github("feddelegrand7/bubblyr")

Themes

Here a list of all the available themes. Note that The ocean, cherry, hippie, bigmom and deepsea themes are provided by the author of the bubbly-bg library, I just gave them some fancy names:

###IMPORTANT: I’ve recently added the lalaland theme which is only available in the development version of the package.

Important: You may experiment some lags if you view your Shiny app in RStudio, instead experiment the themes in the browser.

library(shiny)
library(bubblyr)

ui <- fluidPage(

    bubbly(theme = "bigmom")

)

server <- function(input, output) {}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)

library(shiny)
library(bubblyr)

ui <- fluidPage(

    bubbly(theme = "rstudio")

)

server <- function(input, output) {}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
