Creating an App using the shopifyr repository

[nickstreicher]

I have been working for a medium sized ecommerce business and have created a few different dashboards with different purposes for them. I am a data scientist/analyst by trade, so R is my language of choice. 

I am wondering if there are any shopify apps right now that have been approved using the shopifyr repo (https://github.com/charliebone/shopifyr)? If not is this even possible? 

I have reviewed the requirements for getting apps approved (https://shopify.dev/apps/store/requirements).

My thought is to build a generalizable programmable dashboard using plotly (https://plotly.com/r/). I am just curious if there are any major problems with this since plotly isn't a super robust web app package. 

Thank you guys for your help! Please leave any thoughts or recommendations. Also if there are problems that you think I may encounter please let me know. 

Cheers

Nick
