![]() (This release requires the Windows-based Visual Studio, and doesn't support the cross-platform Visual Studio Code IDE.) If you have preferences or suggestions for features we can add, please take the RTVS Survey, or submit an issue (or even a pull request!) to the RTVS Github repository. Requests from our private preview include support for creating R packages within RTVS, and support for non-Windows platforms. This preview release is just the beginning: we have plenty of plans to extend RTVS further. And because you're working within the Visual Studio environment you have access to all of its standard features as well, including the ability to simultaneously edit code in Python, C++, or any other supported language, use any Visual Studio Extension, and have complete control over appearance, window placement, and key bindings (even Vim!). Once your R script or RMarkdown document is working, you can check it into Git or GitHub. You can create and edit R scripts using a syntax-aware folding editor, and set breakpoints and step into running code with the R code debugger. ![]() R objects you create appear in the Variable Explorer window, and charts appear in the R Plot window. Intellisense tab-completion makes it easy to find and type commands, and get quick access to R documentation. To get started with R in Visual Studio, just create a new project and choose the "R" template. To interact with R directly, you can type commands directly to the R command line while recalling and editing previous commands. Weather chart R code adapted from Bradley Boehmke.
