ui.R and server.R files

- [Voiceover] It's time we talked a little bit more about the UIM server components of shiny apps in some more detail. When building shiny apps, there are two options available to you, so-called self-contained shinyApps, using the shinyApp function that can easily be added directly into code chunks within Rmarkdown files, and split-file Shiny Apps, which separate out the UI and server components into separate files. Now in the exercise files, there's a project which demonstrates how to separate out a shiny app into two files. Let's go over to our studio and have a look at that. So in our studio, we go to the top right-hand corner to Project, go to Open Project, and we'll navigate to our exercise files on the desktop. And we'll go down to 06_02 and open up our project file. When you open up the project file, there are three files which are open for you, 06_02.R, which contains a shinyApp, and then theres a server.R and a ui.R file as well. So I don't need to see the console right now…
