Last month we introduced the Shiny for Python Components and Layouts galleries, which are a simple, visual overview of what Shiny can do, mixed with cheatsheet-like information. They are for new and seasoned users alike.

We’re excited to announce a third section which brings those two things together into opinionated boilerplate code: Shiny Templates. This is just a start… We expect this gallery to grow as time goes on.

These will allow you to hit the ground running, whether you need a quick simple app or a quick complicated one 🙂.
