Error in debrowser installation in R

I tried to install debrowser in R version is 3.5.3, error is there stating

library(debrowser)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘debrowser’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
there is no package called ‘shiny’

and when I tried to install shiny, the following is the error. Please help me to clear this. Thanks.

There are binary versions available but the source versions are later:

htmltools 0.4.0 0.5.0 TRUE
shiny 1.4.0.2 1.5.0 FALSE
