Coming back to this, I must have made a mistake when I changed the name of the output parameter. I have since learned that the output parameter is used implicitly/magically via the function decorators. Would be happy if someone who knows better can confirm or correct this statement. |

@cpsievert that sounds quite interesting actually. I would prefer to wire up the outputs explicitly. Can you show me an example of what that would look like? |

@cpsievert sorry to bug you about this, but it would be really great to have a way to wire up the outputs explicitly. Is there an example of this somewhere? |

output(or really, the 2nd parameter of the server function) started out as a required parameter, but is now optional, and is generally only useful if you want to specify an output ID using a string (instead of using the name of provided to the@renderfunction)
