  • RStudio Server

    RStudio is an integrated development environment (IDE) for R

    • This particular issue should be resolved in the latest daily builds of RStudio. The underlying issue here was a conda patch included in the conda-provided builds of R, which interfered with the way RStudio attempted to load R. Please see https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/13184#issuecomment... for more details.

  • jupyterlab-desktop

    JupyterLab desktop application, based on Electron.

    • The closest Python equivalent to RStudio is the JupyterLab Desktop app[1,2], which I highly recommend. I've entirely switched to using it for teaching, and it is a godsend, since it works the same way across platforms (win/mac/linux), installs its own Python interpreter independent of any system Python the student might have, and even comes with NumPy/SciPy/Pandas/Seaborn/statsmodels already installed, which makes it possible for me to skip the `pip ...` or `conda ...` instructions altogether.

    Between the standalone desktop app, and the convenience of running JypyterLab in the cloud thanks to https://mybinder.org/ links, there is now a smooth path for beginners getting into stats/ML/data science: (1) read notebook on github or nbviewer, (2) run notebooks in the cloud via mybinder links, (3) install JupyterLab Desktop app, (4) learn to install Python+env-manager via command line. Previously, new learners were forced to jump straight to (4), but now there are logical steps along the way!

  • vscode-R

    R Extension for Visual Studio Code

    • Oh - nice, thanks - so it looks like the interactive window is also possible, but not (yet) 'properly'/'officially' supported
