#' Launch the Rnaught Web Application
#'
#' This is the entry point of the Rnaught web application, which creates and
#' returns a Shiny app object. When invoked directly, the web application is
#' launched.
#'
#' The following dependencies are required to run the application:
#'   * [shiny](https://shiny.posit.co)
#'   * [bslib](https://rstudio.github.io/bslib)
#'   * [DT](https://rstudio.github.io/DT)
#'   * [plotly](https://plotly-r.com)
#'
#' If any of the above packages are missing during launch, a prompt will appear
#' to install them.
#'
#' To configure settings such as the port, host or default browser, set Shiny's
#' global options (see [shiny::runApp()]).
#'
#' @return A Shiny app object for the Rnaught web application.
#'
#' @importFrom utils install.packages
