Shiny makes it easy for R users to develop responsive, R-powered web applications. As you probably know, either from your own initial forays into Shiny or from the Shiny Tutorial, creating simple apps is no problem, and probably you have some ideas for teaching apps that could be written using just the tools developed in the Tutorial. But some teaching apps appear to be quite complex. Consider, for example, this app which aims to introduce the student to the Chi-Square Test for Goodness of Fit. The app takes the user through a simulation process, keeping track of the results of simulations as they accumulate, permitting the viewer to consider the results from several points of view, and allowing the viewer to start over, perhaps with new data. The aim of this tutorial is to take you step-by-step through the construction of a reasonably full-featured simulation app that lets students explore, through simulation, the coverage properties of the classical t-intervals for a population mean. After completing the tutorial you will be able to write your own simulation apps---hopefully having been spared some of the struggle that I went through when I first learned Shiny in the Spring of 2014.
