I would like to write a blog using Quarto and add a Shiny app. But when I try to run a simple shiny example app like from the quarto website, I get an error. Here is some reproducible code from an .qmd file like the example from link above:
---
title: "Old Faithful"
format: html
server: shiny
---
```{r}
sliderInput("bins", "Number of bins:",
min = 1, max = 50, value = 30)
plotOutput("distPlot")
```
```{r}
#| context: server
output$distPlot <- renderPlot({
x <- faithful[, 2] # Old Faithful Geyser data
bins <- seq(min(x), max(x), length.out = input$bins + 1)
hist(x, breaks = bins, col = 'darkgray', border = 'white')
})
```
Output error:
processing file: test.qmd
|....................................................| 100% [unnamed-chunk-2]
Quitting from lines 14-20 [unnamed-chunk-2] (test.qmd)
Error in `if (xfun::is_blank(options$code)) ...`:

9. knitr:::process_group.block(group)
10. knitr:::call_block(x)
12. rmarkdown (local) hook(params)
Execution halted
Adding a setup chunk with shiny package also doesn't work:
```{r}
#| context: setup
library(shiny)
```
So even running the exact same code as from the site returns in an error which I'm not sure how to solve. So I was wondering if anyone knows why this error happens and how to fix it?
I am using the following quarto version:
quarto --version
1.3.276
After installing the latest version of the rmarkdown v2.10 package, the error was solved using this:
install.packages("rmarkdown")
library(rmarkdown)
