assembled with blockbuilder.org
same as previous block except this version uses a modified htmltools (see pull) to work nicely with JSX. The pull allows noquote attributes which are very common in JSX. I think this version is much cleaner and more React-like, since we build up components.
The new package reactR provides convenience functions for using react in R. Here is a quick example with VictoryChart built from R. Thanks so much to Formidable Labs for the very fine product with great documentation.
As you can probably tell in the code below, there is much more left to do. Please help by contributing code, examples, ideas. Thanks! As an example, this would be much better if wrapped as an htmlwidget.
library(htmltools)
library(reactR)
library(pipeR)
