Dear all,

I'm pleased to share that shinygenui 0.1.0 is now on CRAN. Built on ellmer and shinychat, it lets a language model build and update interactive Shiny interfaces from a developer defined catalog of components.

The "intent to interface" loop works like this: Components wrap regular Shiny UI and server logic. The LLM selects components and supplies typed arguments via tool calls, which shinygenui validates before rendering. Shiny handles subsequent reactive interactions.

CRAN: https://cran.r-project.org/package=shinygenui

Best,
-Nan
