Full Description: ## Short Summary
Thanks. 
Introduction
Have you ever visited tidyverse page?
They displayed their R packages like collection of trophies.
More than their awesome look, I strongly believe hexSticker of each package summarizes the basic and core concept of that package.
Thanks to GuangchuangYu, there's hexSticker package to generate this hexSticker quite easily.
However, even it's not hard that much to create it, I usually made single use for each r packages, and forget to re-use it and build again and again.
So I decided to create shiny package for easily and interactively customize hexstickers.
