Following are the commands you would require to deploy your shiny app successfully onto [https://shinyapps.io/](https://shinyapps.io/?ref=bioinformatics.ghost.io) for the whole world to use -

```R
rsconnect::setAccountInfo(name='<your username>', 
				token='<your token>', 
				secret='<your secret token>')
```

Information for the above fields can be obtained from [this](https://www.shinyapps.io/admin/?ref=bioinformatics.ghost.io#/tokens) link once you login to your account on shinyapps.io. 

Next, to avoid the following error -

`Error: Unhandled Exception: Child Task XXX failed: Error parsing manifest: Unable to determine package source for Bioconductor package AnnotationDbi: Repository must be specified`

make sure that the package source for Bioconductor packages is set correctly -

```R
library(BiocManager)
options(repos = BiocManager::repositories())
```

Finally, execute the following command -

```R
rsconnect::deployApp()
```

You should now be able to deploy your app successfully.
