R shiny mainPanel display style and font

Question

I\'m learning shiny apps and have some basic questions about tweaking the layout, particularly style and font. I\'d be grateful for pointers or explicit answers, thanks!

You can include arbitrary html, for example, within the call to sidebarpanel, you can do

If you use a wellPanel inside the mainPanel this modifies that wellPanel to be blue
