Shiny functions having compilation issues

[js2828]

I have the most updated version of Shiny package and am running on MacOS Mojave 10.14.5.

I know with the most updated version of the shiny package, these should be able to compile with no problem. I was wondering if it could be my computer, and if there is anything I can do to get Shiny to run properly. Thanks

You can do this with a reproducible example ("reprex"). Shiny Debugging Errors in Shiny code can be difficult to track down.
