Application presentation: "Under Maintenance"

[JustGitting]

Hi,

I've found a number of demo applications in the "Other Applications" section [1] that show a page "Under Maintenance", instead of the application running.

1. Application presentation
   https://engineering-shiny.org/application-presentation.html

These demo URLs are:

https://connect.thinkr.fr/databasedemo/
https://connect.thinkr.fr/grayscale/
https://connect.thinkr.fr/bs4dashdemo/

1. Is there an ETA on when these example apps will be functioning?
2. Where do we find the code for the example apps? I had a search on ThinkR-open repo, but couldn't find anything.
3. The Shiny future demo https://connect.thinkr.fr/shinyfuture/ has a broken link to https://connect.thinkr.fr/without_p_f

Hi @JustGitting

Thanks for reporting this,
The code of those apps need to be refreshed a bit, they are not usable in their current state.
I booked some time to work on it in late december.

Thanks for the quick reply @ALanguillaume and putting time aside to fix this 👍

Dear @JustGitting

I have redeployed the apps

https://connect.thinkr.fr/databasedemo/
https://connect.thinkr.fr/grayscale/
https://connect.thinkr.fr/without_p_f

Only one app is still under maintenance

https://connect.thinkr.fr/bs4dashdemo/

This is because the package {bs4Dash} which the app is meant to showcase as changed quite a bit since the book was first published.

Before refactoring it, I need to have a chat with @ColinFay to see if it is worth the effort.
We are also thinking about undertaking a general lifting of those demo apps.

More on it in the weeks to come.

Thank you @ALanguillaume for the good news!
