I used shinydashboard to create my app. I would like to hide the sidedar in default on desktop environment (e.g. windows), but not to disable it. On the mobile
if you do a ?dashboardSidebar you probably see the usage, like this
dashboardSidebar(..., disable = FALSE, width = NULL, collapsed = FALSE)
So this should work
sidebar <- dashboardSidebar(
collapsed = TRUE,
sidebarMenu()
)
i'm not sure if this depends on your shinydashboard version but you could check/change that as well.
