Is it a bad idea to use reticulate with R Shiny?

I'd like to use python for some behind the scenes logic of my app, but will it be possible to distribute the app normally if I do this?

I will have just one .py file, and app.R will call functions from that .py file (which is imported using reticulate). That .py file will need one python library (called "pandas"). Will it be possible to host such an app on a typical shiny hosting set up?

If not, will it be possible to distribute the app locally somehow?
