R help - Nov 2016 - Project on Course Recommender using R language

Hello,

I am a student of Georgia Tech and currently working on a project : Course
Recommender using R language. Before moving forward I wanted to clear up
things and hence posting this question. Will I be able to build this
project using the Shiny App ? (Developing web applications using R). After
reading about shiny, I came to know that it is recommended for deploying
web applications and requires no knowledge of Javascript but is not
recommended for complex web apps. I was looking for developing a web app on
similar lines due to the time constraint.

Can you please share your thoughts on is it a good idea to use this app for
developing a web application for College Course Recommender?

Thanks,

My recommendation is that you separate your algorithm development from your Web
implementation. Once you have the algorithm working you can decide how you will
implement it. This forum is inappropriate for both of these subjects... when you
need help with coding in R this is a good place to ask questions. Q questions
about Shiny should be asked on the RStudio shiny.
