Last week v0.2.0 of R was released on CRAN and online at shinylive.io/r/examples/ 🎉 I'm super excited about the new R features in this release. Now when exporting an app with the Shinylive R package, or using the Quarto extension, R package dependencies will be frozen and bundled with your app as a private package library. Once deployed, the app will continue to work in exactly the same way even as R packages are updated in the public webR repo. Great news for reproducibility!

This works by looking at the R packages used by your app, checking the version installed locally and where from (e.g. CRAN, r-universe, GitHub). Then, WebAssembly binaries for those R packages are downloaded from the webR public repo, r-universe, or GitHub (if using r-wasm/actions) and distributed with the app as a private package repository, loaded at startup. I'm so glad we were able to work with r-universe and GitHub packages here, so that personal packages that are not on CRAN can be used 😄

Very well done! Reproducibility has been an issue in my work, glad to read that you made a difference!
