{shiny.fluent} alternative for downloadButton()

[kyle-power]

I am trying to use a PrimaryButton() to trigger a download, but this is proving to be a significant challenge. Any pointers for downloads?

Thanks!!

Hi @kyle-power! We do not support using PrimaryButton() as a download button. We can probably find a workaround for this, but it seems to be quite a challenge indeed - I will try to find some time next week to investigate it.

@kamilzyla Great. I think a download button / function would be a critical component of {shiny.fluent}, and I am personally eager to see this feature added in the near future. Your dedication to the project is incredible. I'll keep an eye on this one :)

@kamilzyla I just noticed that we don't have a workaround linked here. If we have it somewhere, can you link it here for everyone searching for the solution?
